Christian education (CE) at First Presbyterian is committed to providing a
safe, encouraging and educational environment where children grow in their
understanding and love of God and young and mature adults find spiritual
renewal and guidance in their faith journey. There are classes for ages 3 and
up, including Jr. and Sr. High youth, and 3 differently oriented adult classes.
Small groups meet for Bible study and discussion as topics come up.
Goals of our CE program:
-
To help members practice Christ’s command to love one another
-
To promote member’s sense of health and self-esteem
CE activities are directed toward helping the Church respect the integrity of
all members, recognizing that people of good character and principles may
differ in their interpretation of truth.
Following the example set by Christ, we search:
-
For ways to respect people of different religions and cultures
-
To be good stewards of the environment in which we all live
-
To be ecumenically involved and socially engaged in our community
-
To cooperate with our sisters and brothers to promote peace and justice.
