Membership

First Pres Membership

We're excited that you feel ready to put down roots in our community of faith. Membership is the place to go to explore your personal faith in Christ and how that intersects with what God is doing at First Pres. It also provides us with an opportunity to get to know you and your faith story.

Due to the ongoing restrictions in our state and city, our next membership class will be held online some time this summer. Please stay tuned for details.

Devoting themselves to God's mission at First Pres with their time and energy.

Still Exploring First Pres?

Each month, pastors and ministry staff lead a conversational introduction to the ministries of First Pres, our core beliefs and opportunities to serve and to connect in smaller groups. Offered the second Sunday of each month at 12 noon at Cafe 225 (225 N. Weber St.) Come have lunch on us!
