Frequently Asked Questions

Q: It's snowing and/or lots of schools are closed. Are church activities still meeting?

A: The winter weather policy (snow cancellation policy) for First UMC is if Prince George's County schools are closed or released early (that information is available at http://www.pgcps.org/ in the upper right of the page), all church activities are cancelled, including those appearing as opportunities of the week. If the weather is poor Sunday, please call the church office after 7:00am on Sunday and listen to the recording. We will do everything possible to keep the services as normal, but we are mindful of people's safety, and do not want to jeopardize that.

Q: What attire is appropriate for church services?

A: There is no specific attire required for our services. People arrive in everything from suits and jackets to jeans.
