Small Groups
The Christian life was never meant to be lived alone. At First Church you'll find many small groups that provide a venue for their members to grow closer to God and to each other through mission and outreach projects, Bible studies, prayer, and mutual encouragement. Visit the Small Groups section of the website for an overview of all the various groups and find one or more that meet your needs.

Bible Studies and Other Spiritual Growth Opportunities
Whether you are a seasoned Bible student or just beginning your faith journey, there is a study that will carry you deeper into your relationship with God. Visit our Bible Studies/Spiritual Growth Opportunities page for more information.

Mission and Outreach
When we use our gifts to further His Kingdom, the end result is spiritual growth. By giving of our time to serve others in His name, we not only please God and bless others, we ourselves are blessed. The Outreach section of our website will introduce you to the many different ways you can reach out and help others experience the love of Jesus.
