Giving
Of all the possible investments we might choose to support, few are as vitally important as the church. First Church plays a unique and irreplaceable role in our lives and in our community. It is a place of beauty and inspiration, of caring and fellowship, of guidance and comfort for people in all walks and all stages of life. It is a solid ground amid the shifting cultural sands of our times. It is a treasure given into our hands by generations that have come before us and a trust for us to carefully manage for the sake of generations to come.
