Matthew 5:43-45 - “[Love for Enemies] "You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.” Brought to you by BibleGateway.com. Copyright (C) NIV. All Rights Reserved.
Welcome to First United Methodist Church
Durant, Oklahoma
 Thanks for visiting our website at First United Methodist Church , Durant. We are a vibrant and growing church with a mission to be the head, the heart, and the hands of Christ.
We strive to help people to grow in their relationship with God. We encourage that growth beginning at membership and then continuing through a process we call Spiritual GPS. We offer a variety of opportunities to chart a faith course such as two distinct worship styles, Sunday School, both long-term and short-term Bible studies, spiritual growth retreats, and mission opportunities. We believe God loves you where you are but also loves you enough to not leave you there!
Be sure to check out our website for the various ways to become involved in our church. We have wonderful ministries for children, youth, and adults. Opportunities are geared for al ages so it doesn’t matter if you’re 1 or 100. There is a place for everyone to come and experience God’s grace.
Grace and Peace
Rev. Greg Tolle, Senior Minister
