Welcome to First Church, where everyone is family. 

We are a place of ministry for every member of the family—

from the cradle to the rocker. Because we are family, our door is always 

open and welcoming; here you can find a place of safety and comfort, here

we encourage, forgive and love one another, and here our greatest desire

is to see His Kingdom come in every person who walks through our doors. 

We accomplish this in our mission, which is to create a culture of discipleship, or next steps. We’re not perfect, but we are forgiven, saved by the grace of God, called by His name to a perfect mission—sharing the Gospel of Jesus. We are disciples who make disciples. We are constantly looking for our next step in the Kingdom and encouraging others to also take their next step. As disciples our relationships with God are persistently advancing, and our lives are continual witnesses to His truth and salvation. True discipleship is our goal, and “next steps” is the process through which we achieve that objective.  

The driving force and pentacle of who we are as a church is defined best by our vision. 

Our motto and our mission come to fruition in our vision,

which is to prepare, seek, live, and teach. 

We prepare our hearts. 

We seek God.

We live His word.

We teach others.  

This is who we are; this guides our steps. 

At First Church we prepare, seek, live, and teach.
