Music Ministry
First Presbyterian is blessed with a Sanctuary Choir that consists of about 20 members and always welcomes more voices. The choir loft offers space to include many more. Jan Pike leads the choir as the Choir Director. This group is more than a choir – it is a small group who enjoy music, singing praises to God, and praying for the needs of others. Because they have a love for music and God, they make quite a contribution to the worship service. Choir practice is Wednesday nights at 7:15.
Another important part of the music ministry of First Presbyterian Church is the Jo Anderson Handbell Choir. Led by Paige Frame, this choir adds a different and beautiful level of music to the service when they play. They participate in Sunday morning worship at various Sundays throughout the year and in the Maundy Thursday Service. Practice time is every Wednesday from 5:30-6:00 p.m. and they also welcome new members.

The Senior Adult Ministry is a vibrant part of FPC with many opportunities for fellowship, service, Bible study, and interesting outings. FPC also seeks to serve this segment of our congregation through providing assistance with transportation, visits, and homecare needs.

Martha's Ministry is an opportunity to serve others by cooking and delivering meals to members of the congregation and community who are sick, have a new baby, or have lost a loved one. Each month a small group meets in the church kitchen to prepare casseroles and desserts which are then stored in the Martha's Ministry freezer. There are Delivery Coordinators and a list of volunteers who make deliveries as the need arises. If you are interested in participating in this ministry, please contact the church office at (662) 286-6638.
If you know someone who would benefit from Martha's Ministry, please call the church office and let them know the name of the person/family, their address, phone number and need. The church office will contact a Delivery Coordinator.
