Sometimes we really need each other, maybe for a little encouragement or ocassionally a helping hand. Sometimes we need others to pray for us. First Church knows and understands the importance of sharing life together... in good times and bad. Therefore, we offer support groups, home visits for those who cannot get out, crisis intervention and emergency care in times of need.

We also offer encouragement and spiritual guidance for people who are going through the pain of divorce, unemployment,  financial difficulties, or life-change uncertainties. First Church partners with Southwestern Christian Counseling Services and offers 2 complimentary visits for attending church members.
