I had been praying that God would help me discern the right church community for me and my family and when I entered the sanctuary, it felt like God was saying, “Here’s where you belong.” Almost 40 years later that premonition has remained as strong as ever. So, what’s to like about the First Church? Well, my response would be, “What’s not to like?” If one is looking for warm fellowship, traditional liturgy, Biblically-based sermons with a challenging take-home message, inspiring music, first-rate educational programs for all ages, an urban setting, and a congregation with a heart for local and global missions, First Presbyterian is worth checking out.
