We know that visiting a church for the first time can sometimes be a bit confusing or even intimidating. We want to make your visit as easy as possible by showing you the layout of our building. Below you'll find the floor plans for our first, second, and basement floors at Anderson First United Methodist as well as a brief description of what each floor houses.
First Floor
If it's you're visiting on a Sunday morning you'll find most of what you need on the first floor. Our 10:00am church service is found in the Sanctuary. Doors 1, 2, and 3 all provide easy access to the Sanctuary!
*Note - from Labor Day to Memorial Day we meet out at Davis Park. Click here for more information about Summer Worship.
You'll also find our offices (room #128-139). Our office hours are Monday-Thursday 9:00am-4:00pm and Friday 9:00am-12:00pm. Someone will be waiting to greet you at Room 128!
If you're looking for a place to cozy up with a good book, our Library is also located on the first floor of the building. We've got a wide selection of books to choose from. Check it out!
Second Floor
Our second floor gives you access to our balcony in the Sanctuary. This is a great vantage point to view our worship services at 10:00am on Sunday mornings.
If you're a 6th-12th grade student, check out Anderson First UMC Youth Ministry, Anderson First Students! We meet every other Sunday from 11:15 am-1:15 pm at Anderson First United Methodist Church for lunch, discussion, and fellowship in the Youth Classrooms 203/207.
First Kids meets in the Fireplace Room on the Lower Level each Sunday morning. Parents can check their kids in at the check-in station in the Narthex upon arrival to AFUMC. A staff member will be happy escort your child to the space, or feel free to tag along!
If you're new to AFUMC and have children, we invite you to register your family so that we can ensure a smooth check-in process and also to help keep our families safe. The form to register your family can be found here (family registration).
Lower Level
Our building's Lower Level is full of life! The largest space is our Fellowship Hall. Fellowship Hall hosts many programs and activities such as AARP, Community Cafe, Quilters, and more.
You'll also find Gateway Child Care & Respite. Gateway includes a full-day licensed childcare program that welcomes children of all abilities.
During the fall, winter and spring months, there is children’s programming from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. p.m. on Wednesday evenings in the Fireplace room. This experience uses Hyfi curriculum, which offers biblically sound, relationally based, and high-energy material. And there is always a snack!
