Worship Arts

Gainesville First offers a thriving and diverse program of music and fine arts, including choirs and handbell ensembles for all ages, plus a concert series presenting four or five productions annually. Classic Worship services are enhanced every Sunday by our Chancel Choir and 41-rank Reuter organ. Chapel and modern worship services are led by our Praise Team. There is something for everyone who loves the arts and many ways to become involved both on stage and behind the scenes.



Sounds of Faith Concert Series

Join us as we praise God through a variety of concerts filled with music, laughter, and fellowship in this concert season. These performances allow us the opportunity to share the love of Christ with our church and community. Concerts are presented in various venues on the GFUMC campus, and most are free to the public.
