As our youth have graduated from high school and
go off to college, we at First Church would like to
reach out to them with CARE packages, a
devotional and birthday cards. If you are one of
those youth or the parent of one who would like to
receive mail, please call the church office and give
us your college address.
We are sometimes in the dark in this world but God's power is always on.
