A Surprise Inheritance

It would, I think most people would agree, be good enough of Jesus came, lived, died, and was raised and – through this – forgave all our sins and set us right with God. If this was everything He accomplished, we would still gather every week to raise our songs of praise like thunderous, crashing waves on the shore. But then God goes and loves us beyond our wildest dreams, promising to clothe us in power and assuring us of a surprise inheritance, an inheritance whose riches and glories the world has never seen before. On this Ascension Sunday, we will be reminded of who we have been made in Christ Jesus.

Scripture References: Psalms 93:1-5, Ephesians 1:15-23

Who We Are

Our Members of Session (Elders)

The Elders at First Presbyterian Church oversee and guide the entire life, mission, and ministry of the church as it seeks to glorify God and love our neighbors. Each elder has been identified as a person of Christian character and has accepted ordination into leadership in the church.

Practically, they provide for the worship, finances, building, education, mission, and outreach of the church, doing so by modeling faithfulness in all these areas. They are the servant-leaders of the church.
