WELCOME to
First Church. Worship is the starting point for
our ministries and missions.
It is where we are encouraged, inspired, and moved
to live lives that reflect God’s love.
There are many opportunities for worship and service
at First Church and we hope you find
your place here with us.
The Sunday Early Service held at 8:30 a.m. is
in West Vestry. This service has a
relaxed atmosphere and is shorter than the later
10:45 a.m. service. The minister
preaches the same sermon at both Sunday morning
services. The Sacrament of Holy
Communion is served every week. The Early Service
Choir, small groups, soloists and
instrumentalists provide special music occasionally.
The Sunday late service held at 10:45 a.m. is in the
Sanctuary. This service is a blend of
traditional and contemporary liturgy, inspiring organ
music, and choral music by the Sanctuary Choir. On various Sundays music is provided by
the Inspirational Singers, the Celebration Ringers handbell choir, and other musicians
including brass and strings. Holy Communion is served on the first Sunday of every month
in addition to special Sundays throughout the year. The last service is taped each week
and broadcast on Cable Channel 13 the following Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. and on the
following Sunday at 1:00 p.m.
Members of the church will be at each door to greet you
and provide directions to the nursery for your children, or to direct you into the
West Vestry for the 8:30 service or the Sanctuary for the 10:45 service.
Ushers will provide you an Order of Worship bulletin and
show you to a seat or you may seat yourself where you feel comfortable. During the
late service we have a special “Children’s Time” when all of the children are invited
to come forward to join the pastor in the Nave at the front of the Sanctuary to hear a special
message just for them. You are also invited to Coffee Hour between services at 9:30 in West
Vestry.
