Welcome to Mitchell First United Methodist Church, we are so happy you found us! 

I joined Mitchell First in July of 2012 and am having so much fun serving with such an active and dynamic congregation.  We have programs and activities for children and youth and adult studies and classes to enliven our faith journeys. 

We are a people deeply dedicated to God’s call to make disciples for the transformation of the world.  Love and compassion always come first at Mitchell First and we joyfully welcome you into our  midst.

We hope to see you very soon!

Blessings of Joy to you,
Kathy

Short Larson - Office Manager

I am in my 22nd year as Office Manager at First United Methodist Church.  My job includes everything from record/calendar keeping, publishing the Sunday bulletin, and scheduling events to searching for food that has been donated to the church and cannot be located.  I love people and feel that my ministry is to make everyone who calls or walks throught these doors feel welcome and loved by God and this church.

I am married to Larry, a middle school teacher.  I have two married children, Brooke (Ryan) Anderson and sons Wil and Jack, and Tate (Jan) Larson and brand new baby girl, Liv.  My family is my life along with reading, eating, walking, eating, friends, and eating.  My happiest times are vacationing anywhere with my family!
