Our World.
Each Other.
At First United Methodist Church West Lafayette, we embrace and celebrate the complexities of our faith, our world, and each other. Together we pursue knowledge and understanding in our journey as Christians. We strive to make the world a better place through service and social action.
And, we nature each other’s true selves as we collectively build a community of inclusive Christianity. As a Reconciling Congregation, we joyfully and unconditionally welcome and care for all in our Church family and beyond.
