Advent Prayer

According to the Book of Order, (W-3.2002a) "Advent is a season to recollect the hope of the coming of Christ and to look forward to the Lord's coming again". Let us keep a joyful Advent. Pray, send cards, send cheer, expectantly wait with hope for Jesus's coming again by slowing down, praying, studying scripture, and keeping in mind what Paul says in Romans 13: 9, 11: "the commandments are summed up in this one rule: love your neighbor as yourself. And do this, understanding the present age. For the hour is coming to wake from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer than when we first believed." Have a Joyous Advent and a Happy Christmas!

Our Mission

Empowered through the Holy Spirit, we seek to embrace all people with the loving arms of Jesus Christ; by providing worship, fellowship and encouragement.

Welcome!

Welcome to First Presbyterian Church's website. We pray that you find God's blessings in your life and God's grace on your heart. I invite you to search our pages and find out a little about us and God's call to us here in Lake Park. If you can, join us in worship on Sunday or if that doesn't work, join us in prayer and praise to our Creator God and to our Savior Jesus Christ in your heart.

We are a community that seeks God's call to us, that gathers around the Gospel in prayer and fellowship, that strives together to be fed and hear God's story in Word and Sacrament, and that engages in God's mission of love and ministry in our community and our world.

We hope that you find a little about what we believe, what we do, and who we are in these pages. We are a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (USA), a small part of the Universal Body of Christ called the church. If you are searching for a church family to better hear God's call on your life, we invite you to follow the Spirit's lead and join in fellowship. To God be the glory!

Rev. Tim Harmon, Pastor
First Presbyterian Church, Lake Park
