Our Worship
The 16th Sunday After Pentecost Liturgical Color: Green
At First United Methodist Church Castle Rock we are touching people and changing lives through the love of Jesus Christ.
Quote of The Week: “God is not an employer looking for employees. He is an Eagle looking for people who will take refuge under his wings. He is looking for people who will leave father and mother and homeland or anything else that may hold them back from a life of love under the wings of Jesus.” ~John Piper
