HUMBLE BEGINNING
Baguio City First United Methodist Church has always been passionate in sharing and proclaiming the Gospel of Christ since Methodist work started in 1952. After 46 years of missionary efforts, BCFUMC had established 3 daughter churches and 5 worshipping congregations in the Cordilleras.
Equipped with their faithfulness and zeal in winning more souls to Crist, the Mission Team has partnered with Christian brethren, Korean Methodist Church, Williamsburg UMC, etc. The Methodist Mission Center, formerly Christian Mission Center, was erected in partnership with Korean Missionaries and now houses the Office of the Bishop (Baguio Episcopal Area), BCFUMC Office, ,and the Baguio City First Learning Center.
