We're easy to find, and we've taken the hassle (and cost) out of Uptown parking.

parking

We recommend using the parking garage at 163 W. Ninth Street between Tryon and Church Streets. It's free for church members and visitors. Take a ticket when entering the garage. You won't need it to get out on Sunday; the exit gate will be open. During the week, bring the ticket inside and have a church staff member validate it for you.

Once inside the garage, you'll see two elevators with signs for First United Methodist Church. For offices, clasrooms, and the gym tale the elevator on your right with the sign that says "Church Offices." For our 11:00 a.m. service in the sanctuary, use the elevator in the far right corner labeled “Sanctuary.” Take it to Level S for the Sanctuary or Level P* for the breezeway to the Fellowship Hall; you never have to even step outside, perfect for days when there's bad weather.
