Do friends often come to you to talk about their troubles? If you answered yes, you are most likely a good listener with a tender heart for supporting those who are hurting. Your compassion and “being there” for others in their time of need may make you a good candidate to train as a Stephen Minister!

Duluth First United Methodist Church is looking for (men and women) Stephen Minister candidates to go into training for providing confidential one-to-one Christ-centered care, support, and encouragement to those in our church and community who are hurting or going through difficult times. No previous experience is needed, only the desire to serve God and share his love! The training for candidates is excellent and equips them to care for people who are grieving, coping with divorce, experiencing a job crisis and facing countless other crisis and life challenges.

If you would like to explore serving as a Stephen Minister, we want to hear from you. Please contact Rev. Dr. C. Kay Fuino at ckfuino@duluthumc.org or talk with any of the Stephen Ministers.

Applications can be found in the Atrium or can be downloaded by clicking on 2024 Stephen Minister Application. Completed applications are to be placed in a sealed envelope, marked Attn:  Rev Dr. C. Kay Fuino, or Stephen Leader Ann Fleming, and placed in the the Staff Drop Box located in the Atrium by Sunday, September 22, 2024. The training for Stephen Minister candidates will begin in October.

He comforts us in all our troubles, so we can comfort those in any trouble

with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.      2 Corinthians 1:4

Prayers and Squares Prayer Quilt Ministry provides two opportunities, one of giving and one of receiving, prayer. Quilters meet the 1st Tuesday and 3rd Thursday of each month to prayerfully cut, sew, and tie quilts, made to comfort those with a severe medical illness. Prayer Quilts are displayed Sundays/Wednesdays for Christ followers to pray for the individual as demonstrated by knots tied on the Prayer Quilt ties.


A Prayer Quilt may be requested by/for an individual by clicking on Prayer Quilt Request Form.  In order to request a  prayer quilt, it  must be sponsored by a member of Duluth First United Methodist Church.

Our Flower Guild creates beautiful flower arrangements for Sunday morning worship services in both the Sanctuary and Hinton Hall. Teams of talented, eager-to-serve Flower Guild members create these arrangements each week. Church members and friends are invited to purchase flowers in memory or in honor of a loved one, or to mark a special event, such as a birthday, anniversary, etc.

The cost is $100. Flower designations will be listed in the church bulletin for the Sanctuary services, and displayed on the screens for contemporary worship in Hinton Hall.
