Fremont First is a warm, inclusive Christian Community in the heart of Fremont California. We invite diversity by respecting differing voices, views and experiences, yet we are unified by our mission: to manifest the love of Jesus Christ in the community and the world.
At Fremont First, we seek to follow Jesus’ teachings and example, especially the commandment to love our neighbor unconditionally. We invite you to join us in worship, in communion, in fellowship, in study and in service to others.
We welcome you and your family into the life of Fremont First, regardless of your skin color, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, physical or mental capacity, religious background, family configuration, economic means or immigration status.
As the people of the United Methodist Church, we practice opening our hearts, opening our minds and opening our doors. You are welcome here.
Please check our Social Positions section for our statements on violence against Asians, Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ issues.
Current Service and Activity Information
During the height of the pandemic, we moved our activities online. Now that almost all of the congregation has been fully vaccinated, we offer a hybrid service with both in-person services as well as the zoom service.
Coronavirus Guidelines
We follow the masking guidelines from Alameda County. These guidelines change periodically as the virus changes. COVID poses a risk, especially for those who are not fully vaccinated against the virus. When people wear a mask correctly, they protect others as well as themselves.
At this time, FUMC still asks that everyone 2 years of age and older wear a mask while attending a service inside our church.
Every Sunday we have a hybrid Service is at 10 am — both on Zoom AND in person. Everyone can participate fully.
Next Service
This section is updated weekly on Saturday before the next day’s Sunday service. The words to hymns are projected as part of the service.
Information for service on December 4, 2022 at 10:00 a.m.
Last Sunday, the first Sunday of Advent, we centered our hearts on #morehope.
This Sunday, we will bring our hearts on #morepeace as we reflect on Mary’s story as she encounters the angel, Gabriel. Mary’s radical declaration of consent, “Let It Be,” inspires us.
If an angel appears to us with a message, what would be our responses?
- There will be a special Advent music offered by Becky.
- Advent Communion invites us to celebrate all angels among us.
- The Craftinators will sell Christmas crafts after the service.
Let us gather as a community of #morepece in this season of active waiting.
