Local Impact

Here is a small glimpse of where First Church is impacting our community right now.

Campus Connection

One of the most important places to begin building a foundation is with school partnerships.  Every life and health indicator is tied to education: jobs, well-being, and family. Our goal is to pour Hope and Encouragement into the local schools by working with school leaders to identify various needs and opportunities to serve and resource.  Our passion is for our school teams to be an ongoing, consistent presence throughout the year!
