Children

First Presbyterian Church strives to welcome each and every child to the love of God through his Son, Jesus Christ.  Our Mission is to develop disciples through the belief that even small hands can do work for God.

“Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”  Matthew 19:14
