Vision & Values

This vision statement defines why we, as First Presbyterian Church, exist. It defines the goal that all our efforts and ministries are working toward and is based on Psalm 145:4 – “One generation shall commend your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts.”
Our Core Values

We believe that the Church is to bear witness to God’s unconditional love through the ordinary means of grace believing he will bring about extraordinary transformation.

We understand the grace of God to be the central message of Scripture, the undeserved gift of salvation from God through faith in Jesus Christ, and the primary motivation for living the Christian life and uniting the people of God.

We aspire to be a church living as God’s family and united across all ages, races, and socio-economic backgrounds who live each for the other and all for Christ.

We share our faith in word and deed to our neighbors near and far, desiring and depending on the Spirit’s work to advance Christ’s Kingdom in our world.
