There's something for everyone here at First!
From music to education, sewing, quilting, crafting, building... we have a place for you!

Check out some of our Study Groups!

Thursday Book Group is an informal gathering on Thursday mornings at 7:00 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall. We choose a book, read a chapter on our own week-by-week, and then discuss together - though our discussions usually meander enough that it's alright if you haven't read the book!

Currently reading: The Rapture Exposed: The Message of Hope in the Book of Revelation by Barbara Rossing. See you bright and early!

Thursday afternoons we gather at 1:30 p.m. for Bible study in the church basement. Join us for conversation as we explore how the scriptures relate to our lives of faith today and talk about what God's up to in the world. We typically read, study, and discuss the upcoming week's Gospel lesson. All are welcome!

Supporting Global Mission

Gods Work. Our Hands. It's a central message of the ELCA, and we at First Lutheran take it to heart! We are blessed to be a blessing and have a number of projects going at any given time.

Much of what we do (quilts, personal care kits, sewing kits, baby care kits, school kits, and feminine hygiene kits) involves partner organizations. Check out their websites below for more information about the work we do together

Music

In grand Lutheran tradition, we are a congregation that loves music. Worship is led on both piano and organ. Our music program includes a choir and a seasonal bell choir, both of which anyone is welcome to join - no prior experience or professional skills necessary! Choir rehearsal is currently paused for the summer, but will resume in August on Wednesday nights. Contact Sue Ost to get involved. Sunday school students occasionally grace our services with their enthusiastic praise, too! First also hosts Piano and Pipes, a community Christmas concert, every December.
