While churches across the state of Texas and in Albany adjust to ever changing guidelines and restrictions, they continue to prepare for the safest way to be with their congregations both in person and virtually.

First United 

Methodist Church

Pastor Tim Trimble said  the summer plans for UMC are being made week by week.

“Summer activities at church will be curtailed and added depending on how gathering together again progresses,” Trimble said.

Sunday worship remains at 11:00 a.m.

Sunday school may be considered on a trial basis, and Methodist Men plan to start meeting monthly for Men’s Breakfast on June 13.  

The Celebrate Recovery Group is meeting again at FUMC on Mondays at 7:00 p.m.

The men’s Tuesday prayer group is being held at 6:00 a.m. and men’s Tuesday Bible study meets afterwards at 7:00 a.m.

First Christian Church

Sunday worship service at First Christian is at 10:00 a.m. in the sanctuary, and Facebook Live will be hosted at 11:00 a.m. from the church Facebook page.

The Elders prayer group meets Wednesdays at 5:00 p.m.

FCC board members will meet Wednesday, June 3.

First Baptist Church  

First Baptist’s Sunday worship at 10:45 a.m. continues, as well as a live stream of the service on FBC Facebook page. 

The nursery for ages birth to age four is available during the service.

The youth group kicked off this week and will meet each Wednesday from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. for the junior high youth, and 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. for the high school youth.

Youth minister Campbell Terry said the times are considered a soft launch over the next several weeks until the number of youth attending is determined.
