Sunday Fellowship

Our mission statement includes, "We warmly welcome all people whom God calls into our family of faith and fellowship".

What can you do to welcome someone to First Presbyterian Church? Do you know the name of the person who sits beside you at worship? Do you invite visitors to sign their name and address on the visitor pad? These pads are used weekly to send words of welcome to all who visit.

Our deacons provide food following the 11AM service for fellowship. Come in to welcome one another and perhaps sing a birthday greeting. In the months to come, birthdays will be celebrated on the first Sunday of each month. If you wish to provide a birthday cake or sponsor refreshments for any occasion, call the church office and the appropriate folks will be notified.

We are known as a praying church! We are known as a friendly church! Let's live up to our reputation!
