Join us on Wednesday, August 13, as we kick off a new year of Worshipful Wednesdays with a Launch Night Celebration! We’ll get a snapshot of all the exciting opportunities coming this fall for children, youth, and adults—and we’ll celebrate with a snow cone party from Kona Ice!
Our opening weeks (beginning on August 20) will help us explore the rich foundation of faithfulness at First, and invite us to more fully root ourselves in the beauty, mission, and history of our congregation:
Deep Roots: The Stories and Stones of First Presbyterian (Aug 20) Join local historian Jack Neely as he uncovers the rich history of First Presbyterian Church and its role in shaping the city of Knoxville.
Flourish: The Art Behind Worship (Aug 27) Discover how the Flower Guild brings worship to life through beauty. This session offers a glimpse into their creative process and the spiritual care that guides their work.
Where Justice Grows: Exploring the People and Purpose Behind the Mission Market (Sep 3) Take a behind-the-scenes look at the Mission Market with Colleen Shannon. Learn how this ministry extends justice and hope around the world—and enjoy a chance to experience some of its offerings firsthand.
Come be inspired, grounded, and connected as we begin another meaningful year together. There’s no better time to deepen your roots in this community of faith.
Dinner begins at 5:30 PM, followed by the program at 6:30 PM. We can’t wait to welcome you.
