If you’re new, welcome to you! We know that entering a church for the first time can intimidating. You might have been hurt or excluded by church communities in the past, or been too eagerly welcomed into a dying church anxious for fresh faces.

Most people first find their way to us through Sunday morning worship. If you’re curious what that is like, you can find out on our worship page.

If you’re looking for friends and deeper connection, small groups are a good way in. All of our small groups are open to all, and our leaders are cued to welcome the stranger. Learn more about our small groups here, and our other fellowship activities.

Rest assured, if you visit First Church, we’ll make you feel welcome, and we’ll also give you the space that you need to decide if we are a good fit for you.

If you have questions, are wrestling with faith, want to tell your story to someone, or get more details about our life together, please contact our Minister of Outreach, Rev. Laura Ruth Jarrett. She’ll leave the light on for you.
