Introduction	The First United Methodist Church congregation was organized in 1867 by the Rev. J.Hill Bounds, an immigrant from Mississippi, who brought his family to Texas by ox-wagon in 1865. At first this church, as well as others in Wortham, shared a two-story building with the local Masonic Lodge. T.A. Bounds (son of J. Hill Bounds) donated this present centrally located site. Bishop Kenneth Copeland of The Texas Conference joined this church as a boy, and at 17 held a revival here. The present edifice was built in 1925. The congregation continues today looking to both the tradition of the past and the hope of the future as we worship together, serve together, and offer Christ to others. You are invited to come grow with us.
