First United Methodist Church

Dress Code: God's house welcomes all with no dress code required—wear whatever makes you feel comfortable, whether denim, dresses, or suits.

Service Format: Birmingham First offers traditional services with inspiring preaching, rich liturgy, congregational hymns, and choral music (9:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. fall–spring, 10:00 a.m. summer); Berkley First offers casual, contemporary worship with modern praise music and biblical teaching at 10:00 a.m. year-round, with seating in comfortable chairs and high-top tables rather than pews.

Visitor Tips: Ushers will greet you upon arrival and guide you to a seat; a Friendship Pad will be passed during the service for you to sign so the church can reach out with a welcome note. Visit the Welcome Center or kiosk afterward to learn about ways to connect, and plan to enjoy coffee in Fellowship Hall (Birmingham) or stick around briefly to meet people (Berkley).
