doorsFirst United Methodist Church Pasadena has served the San Gabriel Valley as a community church since 1875. Our emphasis is to create disciples of Jesus and meet the needs of our wide and diverse community which includes people of all ages and all walks of life.

We welcome all persons to this community of faith, and continually strive to create meaningful opportunities for growth and service. You are welcome here!

Our church mission is to transform the world and make disciples of Jesus Christ. Our church believes God's love for the world is an active and engaged love - a love that seeks justice and liberty. As Methodist believers we cannot just be passive observers. We are engaged and active in the world we see around us.

We invite you to engage with us!

This SpiritSeeker series on "Religion and Science" ran from January 23 through February 27, 2011. In those lectures, speakers Tom Prince and Dr. James Sanders covered a wide range of topics about the relationship between modern religion and science. In the discussion, the speakers explored some of the findings of modern science, particularly in the areas of astronomy and biology, and how those findings shape and influence our understanding and appreciation of God's universe.
