Groups are hands-on, discipleship-driven communities where you spend time weekly investing in one another’s lives. Groups are a place to be known and loved, and to live out our calling of radical affection and accountability through life-on-life discipleship. They are communities of believers, studying the Word, teaching spiritual practices, and investing time in prayer and accountability together.
YOU BELONG HERE!
Mondays, 01.27 - 02.24 | 7-8:30pm
The Sermon on the Mount, found in Matthew 5-7, is considered one of Jesus' most important collections of teachings and has instructed his followers for thousands of years! Though these words may be familiar to us, we return to them again and again for deeper wisdom and a greater understanding of how to live a life of love toward God and neighbor.
Jesus invites his followers to imagine life in God's Kingdom from his perspective. He paints for us a picture of true human flourishing and welcomes us into a new reality where outer obedience flows from profound inner heart change, and humility and compassion are the markers of true disciples.
Join Tanner & Shannon as we take Jesus' words to heart and apply them to everyday life!

The First Pres Flower Ministry is an enthusiastic group of volunteers who seek to serve our Church Family and glorify God by creating skillful and graceful flower arrangements to enhance worship and other church-sponsored, special activities. Flower Ministry volunteers receive initial instruction and continuous coaching in the floral arts and enjoy a small group atmosphere of fellowship, warmth, and care.
The Holy Stitches prayer shawl ministry of First Pres creates a kind, uplifting, faith-filled place for ladies who like to crochet and knit. Their thoughtful and beautiful labor-of-love shawls are a tangible reminder of Christ’s care and provision for those who are hurting. The ladies specifically pray for each shawl recipient before delivering their hand-crafted beauty with a cross and a message of hope.

We chose an assortment of books hoping to appeal to varied interests. Our meetings are casual and fun. All are welcome. Bring a friend!
