Welcome to First Christian Church

First Christian Church is affiliated with the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Our denomination, which was founded in 1832, is the oldest denomination to have originated on American soil.

The Lord's Supper, which we observe each Sunday, is the central act of worship. We believe this is Christ's table, and therefore all believers in Christ are invited to partake.

The Bible is our primary witness to the presence and activity of the living God in the world. It is the responsibility of each Christian to bring the text into dialogue with Christian tradition, experience, and reason in understanding its authority for today.

There is only one primary requirement for membership in First Christian Church - belief in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

Our hope is that you will find a home here at First Christian Church.
