About The First Presbyterian Church
The First Presbyterian Church celebrated its' 175 anniversary in October 2007. The church began with 20 charter members in 1832. Since then the church family has followed the vision of serving the Master faithfully and joyfully. Each generation has added its own unique mark in our history and handed down to the next generations the guidance and confidence that they will make their own mark in the continuing mission and ministry of First Presbyterian Church.
Over the years the First Presbyterian Church has created an identity which focuses on serving God and Christ through various mission areas. Whether it be around the corner or around the world the church family responds faithfully to Christ's command to care for others. Our worship on Sunday morning blends both traditional and contemporary aspects of praising God. From favorite hymns to contemporary Christian songs shared by our children or high school LOGOS group, we feel everyone is nurtured within their souls.
We are part of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) denomination. We are run by the Session which is comprised of women and men chosen by their peers to lead the church family boldly into the future. The Deacons are the visible service arm of the church, giving of themselves to assist those in need. We hold fast to the beliefs that we are saved by grace alone and that our joy-filled response is to serve the Master because of the undeserved gift of forgiveness and everlasting life.
