Ways to Serve

Saltillo First United Methodist Church has a variety of opportunities to serve God and further His Kingdom. We want to help you find your path and share the journey.

Our Vision is to “Shine brightly as the ‘Light of the World’”. Our Mission is to glorify God as we lead people to become fully committed followers of Jesus Christ. Our Strategy is to fulfill our vision and mission by applying the pattern outlined in Acts 2:42-47, who LIVE in an Holy Awe of God and in a Heavenly Unity with one another; who SEEK GOD through Prayer and Worship; who GROW DEEP in Christ through Fellowship and Discipleship; and who REACH OUT in Mission through Ministry and Evangelism.

The following are areas of ministry in which you are encouraged to serve. Please contact the Church office to find out how to make your commitment.
