First United
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
MISSION AND SERVICE
We are a small church with a big heart for serving our neighbors.
​
​
We care for those on our doorstep with love and dignity.
​
​
We meet the needs we see in our community, whether that means providing electrical outlets for folks to charge their phones or collecting clothing and gift cards for unaccompanied youth experiencing homelessness.
But we know that we can do MORE when we work together.
These are some of the organizations we partner with in mission:
​
​
​
Working with other faith communities around the state and in our community to advocate for policies and legislation that will promote our faith values. Currently, we are working with other local churches on affordable housing solutions.

A 2019 mission trip established our relationship with this Christian organization serving the needs of our brothers and sisters in the Zona Maya region of the Yucatan.

This organization started in the basement of our church building and outgrew our space. We still serve meals every month to those in our community in need of nourishment and relationship.

Teams from our church have been trained to accompany young people seeking stable housing.

We give from our annual budget to support the larger mission efforts of our denomination.
