New Members, Visitors and Inquirers Class
“Welcome one another, therefore, as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God.” (Romans 15:7)
Each year, First Presbyterian Church offers Sunday School classes created especially for our new members, visitors and inquirers, along with anyone from our congregation who desires to learn more about our church, our faith as expressed in our Presbyterian Reformed tradition, and the many programs, ministries and service opportunities in which we participate as the Body of Christ. The class is led by our Pastors, together with members of the Diaconate’s Shepherding Committee and members of the Session’s Evangelism Committee. The class meets from 9:30 a.m. - 10:30 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall in the Education Building.
Each class meets for eight weeks. Those who wish to unite with our church family are invited to do so during Worship on the last Sunday of the class, followed by a Welcome Reception in the Church Parlor.
