• Summary:At 212 3rd Street North, the historic Gothic Revival sanctuary of St. Petersburg First UMC—completed in 1925 with a 144‑ft bell tower, a 54‑rank pipe organ updated with digital ranks, and 1926 George Hardy Payne stained‑glass windows—offers three Sunday services (Traditional 8 AM, Modern “IGNITE” 9:30 AM, Classic 11 AM) that are both in‑person and live‑streamed on YouTube and Facebook. The church’s vision of being the heart of St. Petersburg is expressed through a wealth of programming: a preschool that blends faith into hands‑on play, a Parent Morning Out drop‑in for infants, a dynamic youth ministry that uses TikTok and livestreaming, and adult groups such as Band of Brothers and Deepen Your Prayer, all supported by over 1,200 volunteers. With a “Love. St. Pete.” mission banner on its historic admin building, an online scholarship page, and easy digital permission, driver, and confirmation forms, the church invites families, students, and adults alike to grow together. Visitors can connect by phone (727‑894‑4661), email (church@stpetefirst.org), or online giving and look forward to a welcoming community where worship, service, and learning seamlessly intertwine.
