Les Williams, New Member - "Imagine my surprise! My wife started attending the First United Methodist Church in Kaufman a little over two years ago. She had been searching for a church home for at least 24 years. Finally, the day came when she decided to join the church and she asked if I would come and watch her make this commitment. I knew how much it meant to her. I had been raised in a good Christian home and been made to go to church throughout my youth. The church I remembered was somber. Everyone was very serious. I remember learning about all the things I should not do; all the sinful acts; the things that would send me to hell for a certainty. I also remember a distinct implication that other Christian denominations were somehow flawed. When I attended the service at FUMC of Kaufman, I could not believe my eyes. Everyone was smiling. The church was filled with happy people, rejoicing, and praising God. I kept coming back week after week and to my surprise, they stayed joyful. They were happy to be there, and happy that I was there! They sang praises to God, and I never had the feeling of being critically judged. I finally took that step and formally joined. It is a place where I can truly worship and praise Christ with joy in my heart."
