First United Methodist Church

About this church

This First United Methodist Church listing at 9318 Main Street is the Whitmore Lake campus of the shared Brighton and Whitmore Lake congregation. Worship there begins Sunday at 9:15 a.m. and features weekly Holy Communion with a blended mix of hymns and praise music. Families are welcome to keep babies, children, and teenagers with them in worship, and the church provides busy bags plus a family room looking into the sanctuary. The larger congregation also livestreams its Brighton-campus services at 9:30 and 11:00 a.m., but those online times should not be confused with Whitmore Lake's local service.

The church extends an explicit welcome across ages, races, national origins, gender identities, sexual orientations, abilities, political perspectives, and economic circumstances. Its invitation to “come as you are” is paired with ministries for children, students, adults, care, missions, and community service. Youth in grades six through twelve meet Wednesday evenings from 6:00 to 7:30, while twice-monthly Sunday youth gatherings occur at the Brighton campus rather than this Whitmore Lake location. For a first visit to Main Street, the key distinction is therefore simple: use the 9:15 Whitmore Lake worship time, expect Communion and blended music, and verify the location of special programs that serve both campuses.
