Who we are
Welcome to FPC! We’re a community of grace where our good, true and beautiful God is worshipped and where questions about following Jesus are welcome, regardless of where you are in the faith. We’re a pretty friendly group of folks. You’ll be welcomed with a smile, handshake and most likely, a cup of coffee! We hope that you’ll join us for worship!
Who We Are
We are a congregation of solid biblical convictions. God has done marvelous things for us and we want everyone to get in on his life in Jesus Christ through the person of the Holy Spirit. Worship of our good, true and beautiful God is our central purpose.
We are a downtown church and have a unique witness to the goodness of God amongst our neighbors, many of whom struggle with addictions and live transient lives.
We serve a mid-week meal 9 months of the year and we have teams trained in healing prayer. Our facilities are used five days a week for various 12 step programs. Bible studies, Life groups in homes, Seminars covering various topics, an active Children and Youth ministry and various mission endeavors are all a part of the ministry to which God has called us.
