Pastor’s Message
First Presbyterian Church, like a
strong southern oak, has its roots firmly planted in a rich history
while its branches extend outward in love and service to God and to
others. Our faith in Christ has enabled us to weather many storms
together, and that same faith continues to nourish us as we put on new
leaves, growing in the Spirit through God's grace. It is my hope that
this website will capture the spirit and character which make up First
Church. Our common endeavor to worship the living God, our desire to
learn God's Word, our love and concern for one another, and our deep
commitment to reach out to others with the love of Christ should be
evident on the following pages. Indeed, it is our church's people who
embody those roots of faith and the new limbs growing toward our future
in God's service. Thanks for taking the time to see Who we are all
about.
Yours in Christ,
Rev. Chip Hatcher
