Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, the 40-day period of fasting and prayer leading up to Easter, and we will host our Ash Wednesday Service at 6:00pm that evening. If you are unable to attend, or if it is your preference, our pastors will be doing car-side ash blessings in our parking lot from 7:00 - 9:00am.
Our sister church, Jackson Chapel, will hold their Ash Wednesday Service at 12pm noon in Lowman Chapel.
In a startling upset, the Kids trounced the Youth in a historic landslide! Our drive this year brought 226 items to the Hays County Food Bank. If you wish to bring additional items, we are happy to drop them at the Food Bank for you. The kid's victory also means that they get to dump a bucket of ice on the representative of the Youth team - Pastor Adam! We will let you know which Sunday that's gonna happen.

First UMC is proud to support Texas State United Campus Ministry! If you are a student at TXST, we encourage you to join them for worship and to meet other Christians at your school.
