While FUMC is in the process of finding a Children’s Minister, First Kids is starting up and we need your help. Please consider volunteering so we can provide programming for our children!  A lesson plan and all materials will be provided to you. The lesson plan will be emailed to you in advance and all necessary materials will be in the room upon your arrival ready to go.

Below you will find a Sign Up Genius link. There are three categories: preschool, K-2, and 3-5.  Thank you so much for your help and we are looking forward to lots of great experiences for First Kids this year.

MINISTER OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES
FUMC Asheboro is searching for a Minister of Children and Families whose main responsibility will be children’s ministry, but will also oversee our nursery and Family Ministries.

This person must show a passion for Jesus and for God’s people, a love for children, understand child development and embrace Methodist theology and be accepting of all people.  Candidates should send their resume to the church office to the attention of Staff Parish Relations Committee at the email address connect@fumcasheboro.org.

COMMUNICATING WITH FUMC STAFF
In an effort to best meet the needs of our church family, we have compiled the following communication guidelines and schedule. We ask that you please reference the number below to get in touch with FUMC’s pastors and staff members, as we are still working modified schedules in the midst of the pandemic. Church office hours are Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Closed for lunch from 1:00-2:00 p.m.  Also, we have staff meetings from 1:00-3:00 p.m. on Tuesday afternoons.  Please leave a message if you call the church office during that time.  
In an effort to best serve our membership, we have a new after hours phone number for the Pastor On-Call.  Please call:

Email is still the best way to reach members of our staff and our pastors. If you have a pastoral care emergency, please call  (336)444-3123.  Thank you for your understanding.
