"First United Methodist Church of Greenwood is a traditional church rooted in more than one hundred and fifty years of United Methodist tradition. Attendance averages about 125 in Sunday School and 200 in morning worship. The congregation has been experiencing moderate growth in the last several years. The children’s department is the most active, but there are activities for all age groups." |

"I hope that every person at First UMC can find meaningful worship, and opportunities to grow in discipleship of Jesus Christ through study and service. We are a family of love and grace reaching into the community to serve and share the good news of the love of Jesus. We invite your participation and your inquiries as we seek to grow as disciples of Jesus Christ." Glenn Seefeld
