"When
we cry “Abba! Father!” it is that very spirit bearing witness
with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs,
heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ.”
Romans 8:15b-17a
What a marvelous promise and image: to be children of God, brothers
and sisters of Christ! We at Barnesville First United Methodist Church
are members of that family of God, a family with a heritage that goes
back to Christ and makes us heirs of the riches of God! We also have
a lovely and proud heritage that can be traced back through the line
of the dedicated founders who established the Methodist church at Barnesville
over 175 years ago, and the generations who faithfully followed Christ
and built up the church family spiritually and physically. We today
are beneficiaries of their commitment and vision. That legacy is the
foundation on which we build and expand, envision and dream.
With Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors, our Barnesville First United
Methodist Church invites you to visit our church home and become part
of our church family.
