I've known of this church for a long time. They provided an after school program when my children attended a local elementary school, and they learned lots of good stuff including crafts. This was a few years back.
Now, I've learn that the church run a winter shelter for the houseless people in our community. Providing them with a place to come and have dinner, spend the night, and have breakfast in the morning.
First Pres Church also has a resource center to help with certain needs of their guests. There's many good things happening at this church!!
Praise God!!โก
I'm brand new to the area. A month and a half, in from Los Angeles. The people of this church not only have a 50 bed shelter, they pretty much have a full (winter time) service for the homeless.
It is an awesome program that I haven't seen a complete as one.
God Bless you First Pres; your people got the message when Jesus said to feed, clothe and give hope and security to the poor.
Very organized and efficient programs.
Only wish it were all year round.
Amazing church full of the love of God. People here are from many diverse backgrounds and it feels like family. New people are welcomed sincerely and with respect. The people love God and strive to serve our community, like Jesus did. The sermons are always Bible based and rooted in Jesus' gift to us, dying on the cross to take away our sins and give us life abundantly. Spanish is spoken as well. Don't come if you only want religious stuff. Come here if you want to follow God's call to live a life full of love and joy.
The people there show you so much community love and sharing as well as caring.They do for people in their Church and all the community,especially the homeless and needy. I have never seen a Church that does so much to put together what they can for the homeless and hungry. The Sunday Breakfast is out of this plain !! You walk in and they ask you what kind of Omelet you want and I always get it loaded with all the fixings. They have waiters that come to your table and serve you your Omelet. You also can pick Biscuits and Gravy,Oatmeal,Pancakes,Bacon,Orange Juice,Coffee and much more.I t does not matter what Nationality or If you are Needy and on the streets, they make you feel like your human and count as a human even if your disabled your alive and not invisible !! Thank You First Presbyterian for all you do.... ๐ ๐. โฟ. ๐๐๐๐. ๐ ๐๐๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ถ. ๐จ๐ณ๐ฉ๐ช๐ช๐ธ๐ซ๐ท๐ฌ๐ง๐ฎ๐น๐ฏ๐ต๐ฐ๐ท๐ท๐บ๐บ๐ธ ๐
