Our worship style is in transition, blending traditional and contemporary music elements with a relevant contemporary message each Sunday. Join us for worship in person at 9:30 a.m. or via livestream on YouTube. You can also explore our full worship library on our channel anytime.
Join us this season of Lent. Following each service, we will also be celebrating a Season of Giving, completing projects to support our community. It's a great time to check out what Mason First UMC has to offer!
It's not too late to sign up- Pastor Megan will lead this Lenten study on Tuesday nights during Lent at 6:30 pm. We will meet Tuesday, February 24, and March 10, 17, 24, & 31. Please note: there will be no meeting on March 3. We will be guided by the book The Last Supper: Conversations That Led to the Cross by Will Willimon, and you are invited to read the first chapter before the first class.
Thanks to a generous gift from the Smith Education Fund, the cost of your book will be covered by the church.
A Season of Blessings is a series of events designed to help others. Held each Sunday during Lent following coffee hour, this is an opportunity to make a difference, making items in need or items of appreciation for those important to this community. Donations benefit The Mason Food Bank, New Hope Pet Rescue, local unhoused families in Mason and Leslie, and the residents of Green Acres and Jefferson Square.

Pub Theology with Joel Walther is back! Everyone is welcome! Let's talk about faith and things that matter over a beer (or other beverage of choice) at Bad Brewing on alternating Thursdays at 7 pm. Each gathering will center around one question that is meant to get us talking about what really matters to us. One doesn't have to know how to answer all of the questions of faith in the "right" way.
All ladies are invited to a casual luncheon in Fellowship Hall. This is a perfect opportunity to catch up with old friends and make some new ones! Please let us know if you will be joining us so we can plan accordingly.
All women in the community are invited to the UWF Lenten Breakfast, featuring guest speaker Rev. Megan Walther. Bring your mothers, daughters, friends, or coworkers to enjoy a delicious breakfast, with a brief program to follow.
A new, rolling tax preparation office will make it a little easier for eligible households in Mason to get their tax returns done this year. United Way of South Central Michigan announced the RV-size Free Tax Prep Mobile today. A feature of their Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, the Free Tax Prep Mobile has teamed up with CACS to bring trained, IRS-certified tax preparers to Mason to deliver free tax prep services to households with an income of $69,000 or less and have limited internet access or are not comfortable with technology. Households earning up to $69,000 and have limited internet access or are not comfortable with technology are eligible. The bus will be parked in our church parking lot this spring from 10:00 am- 4:00 pm on March 25 and April 15.
