Join Us This Weekend!

We know that walking through the doors of a new church for the first time is enough to make most people feel uneasy. We’ve all been there and know that taking that first step is a big deal and can feel a little  awkward. God cares about you, so we strive to go out of our way to make sure that your first experience is stress-free and welcoming.

A Message from Pastor Rod

Hey there! Just want to say thanks for visiting our site. I’d love to see you THIS SUNDAY at First Church. Every Sunday there is an encouraging message, good music, and great people to worship alongside you. Please feel free to connect with us. Have a wonderful day – and we hope to see you soon.

Next Steps

There is a place for you here! A space to belong, grow and walk alongside others as you follow Jesus. If you are interested in becoming a Participating Member, or want to explore the Sacrament of Baptism, or other services of the church, please contact Pastor Rod. We welcome a conversation about how this church can be your church home. Church is more than just Sunday morning. At First Church, we believe that we don’t just attend church; we are the church. We gather on Sunday to be refreshed and encouraged so that we can live out our faith in everyday normal life.
