Welcome to First United Methodist Church of Holland
Our Vision
A world reconciled to God, to self, to neighbor, and to the earth.
Our Mission
Love Boldly. Serve Joyfully. Live openly.
All are welcome here. For the love of God, we mean it, but if you are looking for the perfect church, we are NOT it. We are an imperfect group of people on a faith journey together. And imperfect people of all ages, differing abilities, ethnicities, gender identities, income levels, races, and sexual orientations are welcome and fully included in the ever-widening circle of this faith community.

Land Acknowledgement Statement
The First United Methodist Church of Holland, Michigan, occupies the ancestral lands of the Anishinaabe (āOriginal Peopleā), who are the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi peoples. We know this land was platted and sold by European settlers under treaties that favored settlers and diminished indigenous life and culture. Problematic Federal policies and treaties, disease, forced changes, and a general lack of understanding of and respect for Native customs and traditions made it untenable for tribal members to remain in this region. We acknowledge the past, and going forward we are working toward developing appropriate and respectful relationships with our First Nation siblings. Toward that end, we offer our respect and support to tribal members past and present.
