Authentic. Inclusive. Compassionate.
Welcome to First United Methodist Church of Cocoa Beach! We believe church should feel like home—a place where you are fully welcomed, deeply loved, and gently transformed by grace. We are an inclusive, multigenerational Christian community that seeks to follow Jesus with authenticity, compassion, and joy. Whether you’re exploring faith for the first time, returning after some time away, or searching for a new church family, we want you to know: you are welcome here. Just as you are.
Our Mission:
To make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.
We believe the Gospel calls us to live out God’s love in real, tangible ways—through worship, friendship, service, and spiritual growth. Our mission is rooted in the United Methodist tradition and powered by the movement of the Holy Spirit.

What Makes Us Unique
Inclusive and Welcoming

Ministry for All Ages
We believe faith is for every generation—and that kids, teens, adults, and seniors should all feel like church is for them.
Love in Action
We don’t just talk about love—we live it. Through food drives, disaster relief, community service, justice ministries, and mission partnerships at home and abroad, we’re committed to caring for our neighbors with dignity and compassion.
