The First United Methodist Men give thanks for another year of service, fellowship, and mission outreach in our church and community. Throughout 2025, the UMM continued its commitment to supporting ministries that care for the hungry, the vulnerable, and those in need across Davidson County and beyond.
The United Methodist Men meet regularly on the third Sunday morning of each month at 8:30 AM in the Fellowship Hall for a southern-style breakfast, an engaging program speaker, and uplifting Christian fellowship. We welcome all church members to join us—whether you are seeking fellowship, looking to get more involved, or simply want to share a meal and conversation. Come be part of Methodist Men committed to discipleship, service, and Christian brotherhood.
