First United Methodist Church

First United Methodist Church Corvallis is a faith community located on the edge of Oregon State University campus that has served the area since 1848. The church is committed to deepening trust in God's unconditional love as revealed through Jesus Christ, which they believe is open to everyone. They experience this love through worship, music, service, study, intergenerational friendships, meals, and play. The church views the Bible as a sacred text containing great truths while not requiring literal interpretation of all aspects. Their faith journey emphasizes questions and understanding rather than absolute certainty, drawing on experience, reason, history, and scholarship. The congregation believes that following Jesus requires resistance to self-interest and apathy, and they express their faith through work for a less violent world, planetary health, human rights, and economic justice. They respect other spiritual journeys and aim to address root causes of social concerns through collaboration with other organizations and faith communities.
