CARE & SUPPORT
Our communities are stronger when we care for each other
At First Pres, we take seriously the Bible’s instruction to be servants (diakanoi) to one another.
Our Deacons show compassion to shut-ins, visit the sick in the hospital, provide home-made blankets for newborns, send cards to the lonely, organize meals for grieving families - anywhere there is someone hurting, the Deacons respond with helping hands.
The Mission Team helps coordinate our Thursday Meal Program, which provides a hot meal every Thursday from 11:30am to 12:30pm.
Many who are experiencing homelessness or food insecurity come to our doors on any given week. We always provide a Manna Bag with a few snacks and help connect them with our community partners like H.E.L.P. who provide even more assistance.
Pastor Eric loves to connect over coffee, lunch, or happy hour with anyone who needs prayer, wants help discerning the next-faithful step in their lives (he’s an ACF-certified coach), or simply needs a listening ear to hear out their frustrations.
