Our Services

At Russellville First Methodist Church, we offer two expressions of worship to live out our mission, Traditional and Contemporary Services. Each service lasts about 60 minutes. Both services are held inside our Sanctuary, and you can join us online via YouTube, Facebook LIVE, or on our Live Stream page here on the website. On occasion, we offer a combined service for special events such as Hanging of the Greens or the Children's Christmas Program. These events are published in the Church Bulletin, Newsletter, and on the website.

Additionally, during both Sunday worship services, Pastor Toby invites the children to join him in exploring the contents of this week's mystery bag. Each week, one child contributes a mystery item, trying to stump Pastor Toby, who must provide a related Bible lesson.
