Read more about our humble beginnings in 1881.We are so glad to welcome you to our site. By exploring each page, we hope you’ll learn a little more about us as a United Methodist congregation.
FUMC Allen is grateful to be part of the United Methodist denomination that has a rich history and deep desire to help transform the world for a better future. United Methodists are a melting pot of all kinds of people. We are a welcoming church that believes all people are Children of God and of sacred worth.
We strive to live out the Bible and its core beliefs to the best of our ability. It is our sincere hope that we always err on the side of grace and any time we sound judgmental we pray God’s forgiveness.
United Methodists have core beliefs even though we do not make anyone sign a doctrinal covenant. We invite you to bring your questions and concerns, and we hope that humility and love will prevail should we ever disagree.
