Hi! I am a member at Dallas First United Methodist. It is in downtown Dallas right next to the police station.
I just moved to Georgia 3 years ago. We went to a very large Methodist church back home and wanted to find something that made us feel at home too. DFUMC is by not really a LARGE church compared to the bohemoth ones around here. We have had over 100 adults and their children join the church in the past year, though. Anyway, we began attending services at DFUMC soon after moving here and LOVED it! There is something there for everyone. There are traditional services in the sanctuary at 8:45 & 11:00 am, there is a contemporary worship service in the Family Life Center at 9:39, of course, there are Sunday School classes for all ages, children and adults. I don't know the ages of your children, but there is a school-age worship service that the youth participate in at 11:00 while their parents are at traditional service. There is tons of singing, dancing, and worshiping going on the WHOLE time. The youth leader keeps the kids engaged. It's wonderful! There is also a children's service called JAM (Jesus and Me) Session, which is basically the same thing for children ages 3-5. Our church has a fabulous outreach program. I don't know if you've ever seen River of Life signs, but we are the church that coordinate that whole effort. We send mission teams to different countries at least 3 or 4 times a year, if not more. We felt right at home here, and I'm sure you would, too.

You really should come visit with us at Lighthouse Baptist church in Hiram. We are located at 205 Pace Road. We have great Sunday school classes and Wednesday night Bible studies for all ages. Our Pastor, Dr. Johnny Turner, is WONDERFUL!
I have some friends who go to Lighthouse and they enjoy it. My daughter went to 3 year PRE-K there. We're trying out Church at the Ridge on Sunday though. Our neighbors go there and love it.
i would definately second westridge... it has a great kids program, good worship, and lots of ppl... the only downside is that its hard to be noticed or known unless you plug in somewhere. i was going for 3 months and nobody knew me until i forced myself in

We have gone to the same Church for the past few years...It is the only Church our children have known, but for the past year or so.......Things have changed. The Church that we go to is Baptist, and we are looking for something that has a great Kids program for ages 7 and 8. Change is so hard, but I am feeling that it is time. Reccomendations?
CROSSROADS CHURCH. its over near highway five. there is a program for elementary students and middle and high school. it is AWESOME.!!!! good luck finding the perfect church!

I have just joined this forum and noticed this post is over a year ago. If you haven't found a church yet, I would suggest Macland Baptist Church on Macland Road in Powder Springs. This church has the best children's programs as well as adult programs. I have gone to Macland for close to 30 years. I recently moved to Douglasville and felt the need to look for a church closer because of the 30 minute drive and rising gas prices, but there just isn't a church closer that has music, programs, Preacher, etc. like Macland. You feel the friendliness the moment you walk in the door even though it is a big church. There is such a Spirit there, you will always feel blessed.

We are truly blessed to attend a great church making a difference in North Paulding. Crossroads United Methodist (www.crossroadsum.org) meets at Shelton Elementary on Cedarcrest at 10 a.m. In spite of being in their first year and being a mobile church, they have a great program for kids. Rotational model - kids start out with parents in worship then leave after a children's sermon for learning tailored to their age. Pastor Hagler is determined to show us how to be people who reach out to the community and help others in need.
