Global Missions

Jesus said, “Go into all the world and make disciples of all people.” (Matthew 28:19) Jesus said, “Whoever wants to be great among you must become a servant, and whoever wants to be first must be a servant of everyone.”
(Mark 11:43-44 )

First Presbyterian Church sends its members on mission trips to be witnesses of Jesus, to serve according to his example, to extend God’s compassion to the needy, and to love others in his name. We invite you to join us in reaching out to our brothers and sisters in other parts of the world. In doing so, you will experience the vastness of Christ’s church and build relationships you will never forget.
