Special Events: Weddings, Baptisms, & Funerals

Weddings

At First Pres we welcome the opportunity to participate in the weddings of our members and friends. The wedding service is a time of both celebration and worship before God, asking God’s blessing on a lifelong relationship. Download our PDF for more information and an application.

We look forward to being a part of this most important day and making it as meaningful as possible. Weddings are a joyful part in the life of our church.

Baptisms

Our ministers perform baptisms for both infants and adults, almost always as part of a regular church worship service.

Funerals

At a time of loss and sorrow, the church offers a ministry of love and hope through our belief in the resurrection. Christian funerals, whether they are held in the church, a funeral home, or at the graveside, bear witness to our faith in the resurrection.

Our minister and staff work with the loved ones to hold a service that reflects our Christian beliefs and reflects the wishes of the family. Following services held in the sanctuary, Presbyterian Women often provide light refreshments in Westminster Hall.
