We strive to build deeper connections with one another and our community through serving and worshipping together.

Welcome to a community where we strive to connect, grow, and serve together. At First United Methodist Church in Independence, we offer a range of ministries designed to meet the diverse needs of our congregation and beyond. Our Children’s Ministries provide a nurturing environment for our youngest members to learn and grow in their faith, while our Youth Ministries foster a sense of belonging and empowerment for the next generation. Our Adult Ministries provide a dynamic and enriching Bible study experience across various locations, offering flexibility and accessibility to a diverse group of participants.
Our commitment to Outreach extends beyond our walls, reaching into the hearts of our local community. Through various outreach ministries, we actively engage in acts of love and service to make a positive impact in the lives of those in need. For those seeking a deeper connection with their spirituality, our Prayer Shawl Ministry provides a tangible expression of comfort and support.
