If you are interested in becoming a member of First Presbyterian Church, you are invited to meet ministers and members of Session on the second Sunday of each month in the Parlor. To give you a great welcome to the First Presbyterian family, it would be helpful to us, but not necessary, to know of your desire to join before the meeting by contacting Cathy Bagwell, Volunteer and New Member Coordinator ([email protected]) or Congregational Care Administrative Assistant Joanie Shackleton ([email protected]).
