To Love Christ, we are to be a praying congregation. We seek a passion for prayer within First Presbyterian so that the power of Christ’s love is made manifest in all we are and do!

Virtual Prayer Room
Next Date TBD
We have our very own FPC Virtual Prayer Room. Fill in the registration form below to receive the ZOOM meeting link & phone number you can call to receive and offer prayer. Please don’t hesitate to ask for prayer. Prayer is effective, not because of the great men & women who pray well, but because of a great God who in Christ graciously hears his people.
