FIRST PRESBYTERIAN

WORSHIP

SUNDAYS 9 & 11 AM

Worshipping God each week is the spiritual practice that keeps our lives in focus.

If you feel far from God, consider making weekly worship a priority. 

It is difficult to train ourselves to see people and events as God sees them without God’s help. 

WORSHIP

Worship at First Presbyterian Church is traditional, yet relaxed.  During worship, we put forth our best. Dress our best, whatever that may be. Following a Children’s Sermon, children 1st grade and younger are invited to leave the service to go to Children’s Church while everyone else continues worship in the Sanctuary. Worship is the weekly occasion when we:

 

   Remember God’s love for us and the world;

   Ask for forgiveness for the sin that separates us from God and each other;

   Hear the Word of God read and proclaimed;

   Sing and speak the faith convictions of the people of God;

   Lift to God the concerns and joys of our life in prayer;

   Offer ourselves to God for use in the service of God’s kingdom;

SUNDAY MORNING

Every Sunday we gather together for traditional worship at 9:00 am and 11:00 am. We bring our best for these services to give glory to God. We sing, read scripture, pray, and celebrate the sacraments.

KIRKIN' O' THE TARTANS

Each year in October we celebrate the heritage of all worshipers. Historically the Presbyterian Church's roots are in Scotland. For the Kirkin' O' the Tartans we have a full bagpipe band and a procession of tartans. 

INTERGENERATIONAL LEADERS

The act of worship is an expression of the entire community. Active involvement of all participants is an important part of our communal worship. Children, youth, and adults take part in leading. 

SACRAMENTS

The sacraments of baptism and communion are practiced regularly in worship. We celebrate communion the first Sunday of every month during both services, and at the early service during Advent and Lent.
