United Methodist Disaster Recovery

First United Methodist Church in Lafayette, LA is a fully inclusive community of faith that has been serving the community for over 175 years. With a traditional, liturgical format, their Sunday worship service offers teachings that are meaningful, thoughtful, and relevant to everyday life. They welcome all individuals to come as they are and provide a nursery for children under 5, as well as a quiet space for families in need. Additionally, they offer a variety of ministries, including mission outreach and discipleship, and provide the option to participate in worship via live streaming for those unable to attend in person.

First United Methodist Church also takes pride in preserving historical documents, such as the 1922 Lafayette Cooks cookbook, which has been reprinted as a fundraiser for their upcoming 180th celebration in 2025. This cookbook offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the ingredients and recipes used during that time. Copies of the cookbook can be purchased through the church historian or at the table available on Sunday mornings after the worship service.
