The First United Methodist Church is a historic church at 101 S. Izard Street in Forrest City, Arkansas. It is a two story brick structure, designed by Memphis architect John Gaisford and built in 1917 as the second church for its congregation. One of Gaisford's last designs, it is Classical Revival in style, with a Greek-style temple front with full-height Ionic columns supporting a triangular pediment, with limestone trim accenting the brickwork.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1917.[1]
