Worship is the heart of our community
of faith. It is the starting point for our ministries and
missions. It is where we are encouraged, inspired, and moved
to live lives that reflect God's love. Visitors
are always welcome. There are many opportunities to worship
at First Church, and we hope you find your place here with
us.

Several times during the year this service is moved to the sanctuary for special presentations. |

The Late Service is held in the beautiful domed sanctuary. The service is a blend of traditional and contemporary liturgy, inspiring organ music, and choral music by the Sanctuary Choir.

Worshipers are welcome to pray at the communion rail in the front of the sanctuary during the serving of communion.
