Our church is holding Sunday school and church services and even some meetings using the CDC recommendations. We invite you to join us Sunday mornings to worship with us. Our on-line calendar is temporarily disabled due to COVID 19 and uncertain times. We will try to post meetings and/or changes as they become available. If you have any questions, please call the church office.
You can always see our on-line services at RUSK FUMC ON-LINE.
We pray that you sense the presence of God's Spirit among us and that your worship experience
here draws you closer to Him. Come share your faith and fellowship with us. You're always welcome here at First Methodist Rusk!
For over 100 years, we have proudly shared Christ's love with
our community. We invite you to visit and be a part of our growing congregation! Our vision is to be a vibrant, growing fellowship, excited about
praising, loving and serving God.
So then, whenever we have an opportunity, let us work for the good of all....Galatians 6:10
From our Bell Choir to our Lay Ministry to our Youth & Children's Programs to service in local care facilities, we welcome you to get involved and be a part of our ministry serving our members and community. The blessings you receive through service are immeasurable!

Deuteronomy 30:20 NIV
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
May the rain fall soft upon your field;
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
