Jesus Is God With Us
The early church mothers and fathers had the great wisdom to set aside the four weeks leading up to Christmas as a time to prepare for the birth of Jesus Christ. The birth of Jesus was a historical event that took place in a particular time and place, and yet every Christmas has the potential for Jesus to be born anew, in our lives and in the world. Join us for worship at First UMC El Dorado from December 3…

The Easter season begins with our youth leading worship on April 3. Then, we will consider one of the greatest issues we confront as human beings. We’ll take an honest, realistic look at how to offer and receive forgiveness. April 3 – Youth…
