Here's what to expect at First Baptist Umatilla
Stepping into an unfamiliar place for the first time can be a little intimidating and maybe even uncomfortable for some people – especially when it’s a church. We get that and have prepared our weekend services to be enjoyable and hassle-free. When you visit First Umatilla, you can expect to feel welcomed and accepted from the moment you step through the door. Starting in the event center, you’ll probably notice people from all different backgrounds and walks of life – maybe even some people you know. While in the event center or the worship center, volunteers will always be close-by to answer any questions and make you feel welcome any way they can.
Once in the worship center, you will be encouraged by our passionate live-band and worship team, relevant and inspiring presentations of the Gospel, and life-changing prayer times. You will notice that First Umatilla is a contemporary, up-beat, and simply put, fun, but more importantly, that it’s a Christ-centered church. That’s something we never apologize for – our church revolves around the message of Jesus and works hard at communicating it in a way that is authentic and life-giving.
