Euless First United Methodist Church’s mission is to help people follow Jesus Christ a bit better today than yesterday.
We love this simple idea, and we feel it is important to ensure our members know the steps they can take to live out this mission. We are called to follow God, to follow God together, and to follow God together with purpose. What does this mean, you ask?
We follow God by attending worship regularly, we pray for one another, we read the Bible and devotionals.
We follow God together by our fellowship. We are intentional about spending time together in small group studies or in our Sunday school classes because we know faith is a communal activity and we are better together!
We follow God together with purpose by challenging ourselves to move forward in faith, to not be complacent with just following God alone, but to push ourselves to be better followers. We serve in leadership positions, we give financially (or tithe), we attend mission trips, we help with children and adult Sunday school, we lead small groups – the possibilities are endless!
Following God together with purpose is the processes to becoming a disciple. Together, we will grow in our journey together.
