On behalf of the entire First Presbyterian Church family, let me tell you how pleased we are that you’re visiting our website! Peace to you in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Whether you are a life long church goer or just beginning to take some first steps in your walk with the Lord, know that you are welcome here. Because all of us in the First family are working to discern God’s call on our lives as individuals and as a congregation, we strive to make this a place where we can ask questions, share ideas, work creatively, and feel accepted. But most of all, we strive to be people whose lives bear witness to the healing, transforming power of Jesus Christ.
We hope that you will find that we are a warm, welcoming congregation and you are invited to come as you are. We have two worship services on Sunday mornings: A non-traditional service at 8:45 AM (an informal service with various kinds of music, teaching, and prayer), and a traditional service at 11:00 AM (liturgy in the Reformed tradition, music provided by our renovated organ and our sanctuary choir. Communion is offered in each of these services on the first Sunday of the month. A Bible-based message is offered in each service. We have diverse Christian education offerings for all ages at 9:45 and the coffee pot is always on–you’ll quickly discover we’re a fellowshippin’ bunch!
We have a strong commitment to being a blessing to the San Marcos/Hays County community, so we have a very strong commitment to mission and outreach. You’ll also discover a number of opportunities to connect and grow via our many groups and ministries.
So: make yourself at home…you’ve come at a good time! Many exciting things are happening in the life of this family of faith, things we’d love for you to be a part of when and as the Spirit leads you.
Blessings,
Rev. Carol Clarke
Transitional Pastor
