The Partnership
Are you ready to take your next step at First Church? The Partnership class is a 90-minute gathering where you’ll learn about our history, core beliefs, and the vision that drives us in Restoring God’s Ideal.
You’ll discover how First Church is making an impact locally and globally, while also connecting with pastors and leaders, asking questions, and exploring what it means to belong here. Whether you’re brand new or have been attending for a while, this class will help you see how your gifts and story fit into God’s work at First Church.
