First UMC has a building constructed in 1980. It is located on the southwest corner of W. Harvey Avenue and S. Jefferson Avenue, at 202 W. Harvey. The sanctuary which runs north-south on Jefferson, and the Chapel on the west side have steep gable roofs and cross-gables. The educational wing running east-west has a flat roof. The buildings are constructed of white limestone blocks. The front ends of the worship areas have tall, narrow stained glass windows. A treed garden area is located between the sanctuary and the chapel on the north side.
The church has a traditional Sunday morning service at 8:45, and a contemporary service at 11:00. Sunday School class for adults and children are held at 10:00. Services are also broadcast online.
