Our own sacred narratives, along with the great Biblical stories, are woven into the fabric of our faith.
At First Presbyterian Church, we welcome each story — understanding
that unity is found not in conformity, but in Christ. First
Church embraces justice, kindness, and humility as modeled by Jesus and as challenged by the prophets. This is the story we are attempting to write together.

This Sunday's opportunity is a Cuba-theme worship service with a potluck afterwards. We are asking for donations at the potluck to help purchase English workbooks for 28 children taking a class taught by a volunteer at our sister Cuban church, the Presbyterian Church in Sancti Spiritus.
Yet I am poor and needy;
come quickly to me, O God.
You are my help and my deliverer;
O LORD, do not delay. - Psalm 70: 5
