Ocala First United Methodist Church

We invite you to serve with us, to worship with us, to grow with us ! We have a place waiting for you in our community of faith!!

Our location tells our story: we are a downtown church on Silver Springs Boulevard in Ocala, Florida, bridging the gap between middle and upper-middle class neighborhoods to our south and the poor and working-class neighborhoods to our north. We have chosen to stay downtown because we believe God has called us to stay and serve in the midst of so much need.

We increasingly find our identity in bridging the gap, or as the prophet Isaiah states, repairing the breach. Our greatest joy and greatest challenge lies in building bridges between the haves and the have-nots, the older generations and the younger generations, the stranger and the resident of the historic district, the staunch traditionalist and the visionary innovator. God calls us to do this work through Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit. We as a Church emphasize putting our faith into action, and welcome anyone who wants to join us in this sacred work.
