Sunday Mornings

Each Sunday morning we hold two worship services with that same foundational purpose in two different locations. Both of our worship services are ordered in such a way that the Gospel story is proclaimed anew each week through the elements of Word and sacrament, creed and confession, prayer and song, with each service having its distinctive way of doing so.

Early Worship Service
8:30 AM - 9:30 AM I Sanctuary

Our Early Worship Service gathers in our historic Sanctuary where we worship and glorify God through older sacred hymns and our Chancel Choir. The pipe organ, piano, strings or brass instruments may accompany our singing. Our Pastors wear black Geneva robes as a traditional way of signifying them as preachers of the gospel and shepherds of our flock.

Late Worship Service
11 AM - 12 PM I Sanctuary

Our Late Worship Service gathers in King Hall. We worship and glorify God through a wide variety of hymns and songs…some new and some old. The singing is led by a small group of vocalists usually accompanied by a combination of guitar, violin, percussion, and piano. Our Pastors wear suit jackets rather than robes.

Sunday School Hour
9:45 AM - 10:45 AM

Wednesday Nights

As our FPC Mission statement guides us…Wednesday Night Family Gathering Meal is one way we “live together in authentic and loving fellowship.” Each fall and spring, we gather for this special mealtime before going off to our various ministry programs.
