Welcome
In the name of Jesus Christ, all of us who call First United Methodist Church of Hershey our faith home greet you and encourage you to look at
what we offer to those seeking a closer and fuller relationship with God. We are an active congregation of over
1,100 members located in the heart of a very special and beloved community.
Our witness about Christ touches lives here in central Pennsylvania and reaches beyond to places all around the world. It is an amazing privilege we have to share the gospel and to tell the good news. God's grace surely encourages us and inspires us to be a community of believers who take seriously our role as Christ's ambassadors in this time and place. So, if you are ever in Hershey, please worship with us and see how God is at work here in so many ways.
When
visiting FUMC-Hershey be sure to stop by our Welcome Center, which is located in the Narthex, just outside the Sanctuary. At
the Welcome Center on Sundays, you can talk with members and learn about all our
activities. First-time visitors also receive a gift from the church.
