Manhattan, Kansas

We Welcome All!
From small groups to weekend meetups, Sunday school and discipleship programs, we have dozens of opportunities for people to gather together in community, encouraging one another closer to a life devoted to Christ.

Welcome Home!
First United Methodist Church Manhattan is a place where people can meet Jesus, believers can engage in life-giving community, and everyone is welcome. We believe in creating a space where people can have authentic encounters with Christ, discover their gifts and use them for Him. Join us for our Sunday services!
Upcoming events
FUMC Family Highlight
FUMC Family Highlight! Meet the Crane family. The Cranes are faithful members of our church who regularly attend the contemporary service as part of the "Balcony Crew," children's ministry, and serve on some of our leadership boards and councils. We got to spend some time with them to ask questions like "Why is church important to your family?" and "How has making church a priority impacted your lives?" Take some time and get to know this wonderful family, and be sure to thank them for sharing their story when you see them on Sunday.

Mission and Vision:
“Connecting to Christ, Growing in Community, Serving the World” is a simple way to describe the way we live out God’s call at First UMC Manhattan. The three are intimately bound and we hope that in everything we do, all three are happening.
Our vision is to create a community of authentic believers and to witness a city transformed by the life changing reality of the gospel, as people come to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
