FIND YOUR NEXT STEP!
Each person is at a different place on his or her faith journey. Some are at the beginning stages of exploring the concept of God while others are ready to dive into study and service. Wherever you find yourself, we want to help you take your next, faithful step. Below, you'll find some of the most common 'next steps.' If you have other questions about what's next on your faith journey, fill out the form below and let's begin a conversation
Baptism
The Sacrament of Holy Baptism is an outward, visible sign of an inward, invisible grace. When individuals receive Holy Baptism, they are incorporated into the church and claimed by God. In the United Methodist Church, we practice both believer’s baptism and infant baptism. If you have never received baptism or would like to sponsor a child for baptism, let us know so we can offer God’s gift of Baptism.
Professing Faith in Jesus
Every person who chooses to explore more about Jesus Christ is confronted with a life-changing question: “Who is Jesus to me?” At First Farragut UMC, we unequivocally proclaim Jesus as Lord and savior of the world. We believe that through Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection, he has saved us from sin for the blessing of the world. This salvation is offered by grace through faith, without price. If you are ready to publicly proclaim Jesus as Lord and savior and acknowledge the grace of God in your life, reach out to us so we can help you take your next step of discipleship.
Membership
We cannot be Christians by ourselves. Christianity necessitates community. As members of First Farragut UMC, we make a promise to God and one another to be faithful to Christ’s holy Church and the community of faith in Farragut with our prayers, presence, gifts, service, and witness. By becoming a member of FFUMC, you join a covenant community that strives toward mutual affection and care for all. Let us know if you are ready to officially join our community of faith.
