Welcome!


At First Methodist Asheboro, we are a church that not only welcomes you but also affirms you for the unique and beautiful way God has created you. No matter where you are in life or what your story is, you are affirmed by God and God’s people. Whether you have been in church all of your life, been away from church, been hurt by church, or want to find a church for the first time, you will be affirmed in this community that loves Jesus and one another. At First United Methodist Asheboro, you will have many opportunities to grow in Christ and to serve Christ in the world. Come and experience this authentic Christian community!

Who We Are

First United Methodist Church holds the honor of being the “First” church established in Asheboro. We began in 1843 from humble beginnings with our founders meeting in houses to worship and break bread together. Today we are located in downtown Asheboro on the corner of North Fayetteville and Salisbury Streets. While we are proud of our history, our true joy and purpose comes in sharing the love of Jesus Christ to all around us, and striving to be His hands and feet in Asheboro.


At First UMC Asheboro, we believe in experiencing God’s authentic love; by responding through worship, connection, service and affirmation of all creation. This is more than a tagline to us, it is the mission of our church.


We look to the perfect example of Jesus to guide us, and this is a place for everyone regardless of your socio economic status, age, race, sexual orientation, or past. 


Everyone is welcome and loved here.
