We believe faith is meant to move us toward a more just and beautiful world.
At First United, serving means showing up where harm exists and working alongside our neighbors toward real change.
This work is serious—and it is also deeply joyful. The kind of joy that comes from bumping shoulders, rolling up sleeves, and doing the work together—tiring and messy as it is.
Whether it’s caring for our shared spaces or stepping out into the community, we invite you to participate in hands-on ministries like Refresh and other partnerships across our community.
Together, we practice loving our neighbors not from a distance, but side by side.

Serve Joyfully

You don't need to be a “member” to jump in and serve.
