First United Methodist Church of Mesa

About this church

First United Methodist Church of Mesa worships every Sunday at 9:00 a.m. in its historic sanctuary at 15 E. 1st Avenue in downtown Mesa, across from the Mesa Arts Center. The building, completed in the 1950s, is known for its 120-foot spire, and services can be watched live online. Light snacks and refreshments follow worship in the Fellowship Hall. A nursery is available during the service, a Children's Moment opens worship, and Children's Worship is held in the chapel. Sunday School for children meets at 10:30 a.m. in Room D. The church offers rides for people within five miles of the building; call the office at 480-969-5577, Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., to arrange one.

Adult Sunday School classes meet after worship, including Searchers, Serendipity 2.0, and Disciples, plus a newer class led by the pastor. A Wednesday Bible study with the pastor meets in the afternoon. Music ministries include an adult choir, a children's choir and a bell choir. Outreach includes Friends@First Mesa, which provides a cooldown room, showers, blessing bags and a clothing closet on Mondays and Thursdays from noon to 3 p.m., food boxes, and a seasonal quilting group that sews sleeping bags. A public rose garden is open to visitors.
