Scripture for Sunday (6/13/2021)

Greetings all! We are home. We had a wonderful vacation with family spending time in Western NC. I will be going to see Jean Blaylock today who is in San Angelo for cardiac rehab. Please keep her in your prayers. We are looking forward to being back in church Sunday.

Scripture for Sunday
1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (ESV)

24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it. 25 Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. 26 So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air. 27 But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.

About First Presbyterian

We are called to be a light to the world reflecting the love of God. At First Presbyterian we strive to be a welcoming, serving community. We share God's grace through worship, preaching, education, fellowship and ministries of prayer. We affirm the worth of all and nurture each individual's spiritual walk. Inspired by our heritage, we confront our future with hope and confidence in God's purpose.

Over the years First Presbyterian has been here, for individuals, families, students and children at every age and stage in life; always serving one purpose: to help people come to know and experience Jesus Christ, His love and His ways. Whether you’re already a part of our family or coming through our doors for the very first time, you’ll find a place for learning, celebration and encouragement. A place for you. Welcome.
