Russellville First Methodist Church

About this church

Russellville First Methodist Church in Russellville, Alabama, holds two Sunday worship services in its sanctuary: a contemporary service at 8:45 a.m. and a traditional service at 11:00 a.m. Each lasts about an hour. The traditional service uses hymns, a consistent order of worship, a choir, organ and piano, and liturgical elements such as the Lord's Prayer and Apostles' Creed. The contemporary service features modern worship music with a band and a more casual setting. Teaching in both is based on the Bible with a focus on practical application. Children are invited forward during both services for a weekly mystery bag lesson. The church describes itself as a Global Methodist congregation, and its history in the area reaches back to 1820.

Children's Ministry serves birth through fifth grade, and Voyager Student Ministry is for grades 6 through 12. Adults can join Women's Bible Study on Tuesdays at 1:30 p.m., Wonderful Wednesdays Bible Study on Wednesday evenings in the Ministry Center, and a Men's Bible Study on Thursdays at 6:30 a.m. The church also operates a food pantry and hosts the SPAN Program for at-risk youth. Services can be watched online through YouTube, Facebook Live, or the website's live stream page, which helps anyone who cannot attend in person. The church is at 311 North Jackson Avenue, and the office is open Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Confirm times on the website before visiting.
