Baptism
Baptism is a mark of our entry into the family of God. As United Methodists, we believe that persons of every age can be baptized. We regularly baptize infants and children, and our congregation vows to nurture and care for them, committing to raise them in a community of love and forgiveness and to pray for them as they grow into disciples of Jesus Christ. We also rejoice as we baptize adults who are making a profession of faith and choosing to join our congregation and the family of God.
Weddings
Thank you for considering First United Methodist Church of Marietta for your wedding. It is our wish that it will be the joyful, Christian experience God has planned it to be.
Funerals
Funerals are worship services where we acknowledge death and bereavement, and celebrate the gospel of resurrection. Services are most likely scheduled in our Sanctuary, open to all members of the congregation to share in the remembrance. Our pastoral staff is available to offer assistance, consultation, and leadership.
