At First Presbyterian Church, we believe everyone has unique skills, resources, relationships, and spiritual gifts from God that we can discover, develop, and deploy by His grace, for His glory. Serving others helps us find the purpose God has for us. By following Jesus' teachings, we focus on loving God and loving our neighbors (Matthew 22:37–40). When we choose to serve, no matter how big or small the tasks, we invite God into our lives and follow Jesus' example.
There are many ways to serve, from simple acts of kindness to taking on leadership roles. Everyone has unique talents and schedules that can make a difference. Serving allows us to show God's love to others and help them grow.
At FPC, we believe everyone has gifts that can help our church, community, and the world. Serving is not just about helping others; it's also about growing ourselves!
Join us in this exciting journey to discover and use your gifts for His glory!

'Tis the Season, and we are so excited for the 13th Annual Good Hood Affordable Christmas! Their heart is always to give every family a Merry Christmas and make every parent the hero in their home. Thank you for making this possible each year for our families and friends on the Eastside of San Antonio.
Perspectives is a fifteen-lesson discipleship course that invites you to explore God’s global purpose through four vantage points: Biblical, Historical, Cultural, and Strategic. Together, these perspectives reveal how God has worked throughout history to make His name known, how the Church has responded, and how we are invited to participate today.
The course walks through Scripture, the early Church, the global Christian movement, and modern-day missions history. Students learn how God moves, how His people join His work, and how the gospel continues to advance across the world.
This is not just a course about missions—it’s a transformational journey that clarifies every believer’s unique role in God’s redemptive plan. Whether you’re exploring vocation, deepening discipleship, or discerning your place in God’s story, Perspectives helps you grow in understanding and purpose.
The class meets Tuesdays, January 20–May 5, at First Baptist Church.
As we look forward to the new school year ahead, we have been encouraged to hear about many prayers and praises from our Biblicus Mexico Scholarship students. As these students study are equipped and developing vision for the ways that God has called them to be leaders in ministry across Mexico, FPC Covenant Partners are invited to connect with them as Prayer Partners. If you are interested in learning how you might walk with a student in prayer, please contact Lindsay Selli.
