The First United Methodist Church of Boulder believes that the distinctions between people are blessings from God and that their deliberate efforts to cultivate a spiritual community that is more welcoming of people of all backgrounds and identities bring joy to God.

It declares that everyone, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identification, is a treasured child of God.

They believe that human beings have a deep-seated need for meaning and purpose in their lives and a desire to feel connected to one another and to transcend themselves. 

Religions came into being and developed due to a longing present from the beginning of human history.

Moreover, they are also aware that although religious organizations have been responsible for a tremendous deal of good in the world, they have occasionally been the source of unimaginable suffering.

They believe the world is far more significant than reciting any particular doctrine or devotion. 

As mentioned, the church's history started in the afternoon of Aug. 18, 1859, when Reverend Jacob Adriance rode into the bustling new mining settlement in Boulder City, Colorado. 

Rev. Adriance was hastily dispatched by the Methodist Nebraska Conference to minister to the gold-seekers in Colorado and to build a mission at the base of the Rockies in Colorado.

He lived in Golden City and traveled throughout the region frequently, making stops in the various towns and camps. 

After delivering a sermon in Boulder on Nov. 27, 1859, Rev. Adriance assembled a class of six individuals into the Boulder Methodist Church, the fourth Methodist church in Colorado.

The Methodists had gatherings in Boulder's Central School and the Congregational Church for ten years. 

In 1870, the Methodist church counted nine members and had just appointed its first resident minister.

After two years, they established their first structure at the intersection of Fourteenth and Spruce streets. 

Furthermore, in September of 1892, a new building constructed using the local stone and designed in the Romanesque Revival style was dedicated on the same corner.
