| Fellowship |
| Our invitation
is open to all who wish to join us in fellowship in the worship of
the Lord. |
| Music Ministry |
|
 Great music has the power to
lift the spirit, enrich the mind, and involve the whole person,
body, mind, and spirit in a creative act of praise. Because music
must be created anew each time it is heard, worship becomes a
creative adventure involving the total worshiper as the timeless
message of the Gospel is proclaimed through music.
Music is an important part of
life at First Presbyterian Church because it gives everyone an
opportunity to "make a joyful noise unto the Lord" young, old,
choir, and congregation. It gives us all a means of expressing our
faith in a meaningful, fulfilling way. An Allen digital computer
organ enhances our worship, along with 37 Malmark hand bells,
adding a little extra ring to worship. We welcome new voices and
ringers to our two choirs:

| Summit Youth Group
(Grades 7-12) |
| The group meets
monthly (every 3rd Sunday at 11:30 am). Activities include Laser Tag, summer lake cottage
get-together with food, boating and tubing, weekend trips (in 2005
we took a weekend trip to Chicago). The group also participates in
Easter Sunrise Service, Halloween Party event and Christmas

| Education |
|
At First Presbyterian Church,
we strive to create a curriculum designed to reach the needs of
all Christians of all ages. Our goal is to strengthen and expand a
caring, concerned community in which we as Christians can meet in
close fellowship and help each other in our mutual quest toward a
deeper understanding of God, a higher communion with our Lord and
a clearer definition of Christ's will for our lives.
