Places We Serve People we Help

First Presbyterian is a caring church with a long tradition of helping others.
We minister not only to our own members, but also to our downtown neighbors as well. Equally important, members of our church family work as individuals to support countless other programs and charities in which they have an interest. We are committed to Discovering the Heart of Christ in the Heart of the City - to be a blessing to others. Our efforts go by many names: “mission,” “benevolence,” “outreach,” “giving,” “caring in the city,” and “seed funding.” In many ways we reach out to extend the love of Christ to our neighbors and our world.
