First United Methodist Church of Celina

About this church

First United Methodist Church of Celina calls itself a house of grace where people are welcomed as they are and given room to grow. Loving neighbors, community service, hope, kindness, children, school-year youth, adult groups, choir, praise band, handbells, and acolytes translate that identity into participation. Children are included in worship through a special message and the symbolic carrying of candlelight into and out of the sanctuary.

The current homepage lists one Sunday worship service at 10:15 a.m. and announces Sunday School and discipleship classes at 11:15 beginning August 30, 2026. Older visitor and music pages still describe a 9:15 traditional service, 10:00 classes, and two-service nursery arrangements, so guests should follow the homepage’s newer schedule and confirm after the transition. Under the family pattern, children remain through the Children’s Message; pre-K through second grade may then attend Children’s Church. Nursery is described for infants through age four, though its “both services” language reflects the older timetable. Guest parking spaces near the main entrance are painted blue and marked “Grace,” with overflow in the gravel lot north of the sanctuary. Youth groups serve grades six through twelve during the school year and follow Celina Independent School District closures, but the public youth page does not publish one fixed weekly hour.
