The purpose of First Presbyterian Church is to provide avenues of Worship of our Savior Jesus Christ. We attempt to follow the doctrines of John Calvin and other Reformed Traditions and we allow for personal expressions of faith as guided by the Holy Bible.

Welcome to Pentecost 2010
Pentecost 2010

The Worship experience can take many forms. Our two types of formal Worship Services include the traditional service that is held at 11:00 AM each Sunday morning. That service includes the traditional or expected amount of formality but without being stilted or inaccessible. We do enjoy each other's company and rejoice in worshiping the Lord as a community.

A visitor can expect to be greeted warmly and openly. When the time comes for you to seek to join our congregation, see any Elder including the Pastor.

First Fellowship, A Moment Apart A Moment Apart 2010

In addition to the 11:00 AM traditional service, we offer the 9:00 AM First Fellowship, A Moment Apart service. When weather permits, we meet in our Friendship Courtyard. It is in the format of a quasi Taize service, where we explore some of the more mystical parts of prayer and praise and it may morph into whatever is relevant for the particular day. When you visit, you may have a direct impact on what happens that day. Whatever is discussed, the service is usually followed by breakfast that often includes grits. Hey, you're in the South now. . . 
All are most warmly invited!
