We Exist to worship God
October worship at Atlanta First
This October, we will explore God’s vision of oneness—a unity that does not erase our differences but draws us together in grace. Using the image of the earth as a puzzle, We Are One will celebrate the distinct people, stories, and gifts God joins into one beloved community. Each Sunday, another piece of the puzzle will move into place:
October 4 – One Table: World Communion Sunday
October 11 – One Body, Many Colors: Atlanta Pride Sunday
October 18 – One Ministry, Many Gifts: Laity Sunday
October 25 – One Love, Ever Reforming: Reformation Sunday
Together, we will gather at Christ’s table, affirm the sacred worth of all people, celebrate the ministry of all God’s people, and open ourselves to the Spirit’s continuing work of reformation.
In a world that so often pulls people apart, come discover the grace that holds us together.
Many pieces. One body. One world. One love. We are one.
worship is at 10 a.m. on Sunday mornings. You are invited to join us in-person in the historic Atlanta First UMC sanctuary, or online through our Facebook Page or Our YouTube Channel.
Upcoming worship Series for November: The Giving Life
Join us November 1st thru 22nd for The Giving Life, a four-week worship series exploring generosity and faithful stewardship. Before we become givers, we are receivers. Our lives, resources, relationships, faith, and world have been placed in our care by a generous God. In conversation with Shel Silverstein’s The Giving Tree and stories from scripture, we will consider what we have received, what it means to have enough, how generosity can help an entire community flourish, and what we are called to preserve for those who come after us.
We begin on All Saints’ Day by remembering the people whose faithfulness helped shape our lives. In the following weeks, we will examine our relationship with possessions, discover generosity rooted in grace rather than guilt, and consider how we tend the many gifts God has entrusted to us.
Come as we learn together to receive with gratitude, share with joy, and tend God’s gifts with care.
Sundays at 10 a.m. Eastern Time
