Do not waste time bothering whether you “love” your neighbor; act as if you did.
C.S. Lewis

We believe that the purpose of the church is to serve people, not keep an institutional machine operating. We do not believe that people should serve a structure, but that the structure should serve people. That’s why our vision for ministry is based on our commitment to encourage people to serve where they best fit according to their God-given gifts, personalities, and abilities. Check out our calendar for upcoming opportunities!
Everyone has a GIFT to share. At First Church we encourage members and friends to use their God-given gifts to support many local missions. With our dollars and hands, these members and friends are seen all over the community sharing their time and talent with:
- the homeless shelters
- nursing homes
- Salvation Army
- St. Vincent DePaul
- and various other community agencies
