Community at First Church


At First Church we celebrate a congregation diverse in age, race and socio-economic backgrounds. Where ever you may be in your faith journey, including no where at all, there is a place here for you. In the words of our Senior Pastor, Dr. Michael Gardner, “If you are looking for a church home where everyone looks like you do, goes to school with your children, has the same background and beliefs as you, this probably isn’t the place for you. However, if you are looking for a church that knows how to love people of all backgrounds and makes an incredible difference in the world, this is that place!” We look forward to you joining us!

Join us for this exciting series and invite a friend! [ More ]
