The First Press APRIL 2013
At First Presbyterian we believe God has Called us into the Body of Christ to be
Nourished and Sustained in our relationship with Him and each other in order to be
Sent into the world to engage the work of Jesus.
Join us at Clyde White’s
camp Monday, April 15th
at 6:00 p.m. for fun, food,
and fellowship. Those
interested in “popping a
few caps” (shooting clay
targets) bring your gun.
The meal will be catered
by Catfish Cabin so, if
you plan to attend,
please call the church
office.

LOGOS was a weekly highlight on Wednesday evenings! Many thanks to ALL the great volunteers
for sharing your time, talents & God’s love.
To God be the glory!
Thank You Presbyterian Women!
Presbyterian Women are amazing! We are
grateful for the many ways they serve at FPC
and especially their support of Children’s
Ministry. We have purchased long needed new
activity books, puzzles, games and art supplies
for the Children’s Worship center with their
generous donation. When serving as greeter in
Children’s Worship on Sunday mornings, they
are always dependable and willing to help the
children. On communion Sundays the ladies
are always thoughtful in remembering to
prepare communion bread for Children’s
Worship when preparing for the congregation.
Presbyterian Women filled over 100 eggs with
goodies for the annual Easter egg hunt. These
are just a few examples of the great work and
service provided by Presbyterian Women. On
behalf of Children’s Ministry, many thanks and
big hugs for ALL you do – we appreciate you!
Gratefully,
Lisa Lawrence
