Our Story
The First United Methodist Church of Blairstown has been nurturing the people of Blairstown and its surrounding communities since 1811. Our mission is to improve the lives of the people who live here by connecting them with the life changing grace of Jesus Christ and engaging them in service to our communities.
Our church is a part of the United Methodist Church, which is engaged in ministry all around the globe. Your donations to our ministry not only serve people locally, but improve the lives of people nationally and globally.
You Are Blessed
Giving is about so much more than money. God has blessed you with much to share. Your gift of prayer offers encouragement to others. Your presence means someone else doesn’t need to be alone. Your financial gift enables someone to worship with us from home. Your willingness to serve means someone can receive food. Your story of faith will offer someone hope.
Why Give?
Giving to our ministry is as much about your faith as it is about your commitment to Jesus Christ. Your giving affirms your belief that God will continue to provide for your needs, your gratitude for God’s abundant Grace, and your commitment to be a part of Jesus’ ongoing mission of salvation in your life and the lives of others in our community and around the world.
Make a Difference
Together, United Methodists do remarkable ministry around the world. We care for survivors recovering from earthquakes and storms; we invest, long term, in vulnerable communities; we implement the most effective solutions to diseases like malaria; we equip the next generation to lead the church and society. In all of this, we share the good news of Jesus Christ.
Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion – it is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like Christ.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.
