A note of welcome from our Senior Pastor, Dr. Charles Spence: A pastor always wants to refer people to a religious bookstore that caters to the needs of the church. I am pleased that First United Methodist Church of North Platte, Nebraska, has a virtual bookstore to serve those needs. Cokesbury is our denominational publishing house, so by using Cokesbury, you are supporting the United Methodist Church's ministry. This bookstore can provide religious books, Bibles, curriculum, and other gift items that communicate our theology and our Biblical perspective. Cokesbury also is able to provide material that comes from other denominations so that we can compare our heritage and our ministry to others. Through the virtual bookstore, First United Methodist Church receives a financial rebate for non-curriculum purchases made through our web site. Enjoy your personalized bookstore, and be sure to check out our recommendations by clicking on VSL Recommended List.
