First Presbyterian Church

Going to a different church every Sunday across this state and First Presbyterian has a special weight to it. Evening service, I was early and not confident to enter such a palace, but was greeted. A beautiful interior. I sat upstairs in the cozy pews. Front row to a wonderful view of the chimes, the choir, the sermon, and the church goers below. It was quiet. A place I’ve often tied to stress and being unassimilated, for once, I felt at rest. The choir was wonderful, allowing a reminisce of my life through my mind. The sermon was certainly long, but well spoken. Rather than the usual 1-4 verses covered, it felt like the entire book and scene was covered and then related.

Wonderful and beautiful Christmas Eve service. The pastor gave a strong powerful message. Im Baptist but came to the service because my brother and his family goes here. Thank you for truly preaching the word of God with love and conviction.

Great, welcoming Christian church, which preaches straight from the Bible. This church is for those who are interested in hearing God's word, who love Bible based worship in Word and song, and who are not willing to compromise truth for an experience. There are plenty of discipleship opportunities for youth, students, busy homes, and seniors. Very missions oriented. A great place to worship God and our Savior Jesus Christ.
