two opportunities to worship In-person each sunday

**JULY 29 UPDATE** This week the CDC updated their COVID-19 guidance to protect people from the Delta variant and now recommends that everyone wear masks indoors in public.  DeKalb and Gwinnett Counties are experiencing transmission rates that reflect the CDC’s new recommendations. We are requesting everyone honor this recommendation while at the church and wear masks, starting this Sunday, August 1.  At this time, we will continue to sing while wearing masks.  We will also continue to provide sections of the sanctuary where physical distancing is required in addition to masks.

Each week the live-stream of the traditional service will be posted to the Past Worship Videos page for replay.
An acolyte plays a very important role in worship,
a tradition that is more than 1700 years old!
 
As we begin to return to Worship, we are training a new group of Acolytes. This group is open for 4th graders through rising 12th graders.
 
The lighting of the altar candles in the worship service is a symbol of Jesus coming into the presence of the worshiping community. Just as the Israelites were led through the desert by a pillar of fire, we are led by Christ, the light of the world.

umcor flood bucket project
​Great day of service 2021

One the many Great Day of Service projects this year will be assembling flood buckets for UMCOR. The flood buckets contain much needed supplies that are used by volunteers cleaning up after a disaster. 
As a part of this project leading up to Great Day of Service in September, Tucker First UMC is collecting the supplies that go into the buckets. Please note that the list of items for the flood buckets is extremely specific because they all must fit neatly into the bucket.
Our Tucker First UMC Vacation Bible School children have already given this project a head start by collecting cleaning supplies during VBS. We are incredibly grateful for their efforts! 

Each week we will feature an item needed in each flood bucket. You can order this item or a series of items from the Flood Bucket Amazon Wish List at this link. (The wish list also provides an image of the type of products needed) Please ship all supplies to the church office. If you wish to purchase items locally, the bucket supply list is located here. You can drop your item donation off in the lobby outside the church office.
