Newton First Presbyterian Church
OUR MISSION
A caring community glorifying God by living in His grace through Jesus Christ
OUR VISION
- we are learning what it means to live together - and get along with people (like me!) who are "God's sandpaper" sent to smooth out our rough edges! We celebrate our milestones and victories together. We lean on each other in the crises of life. We dance at weddings and sing at funerals. We'll fix your dinner when the baby comes and tell you our stories about our parenting mistakes to give you confidence! We'll be there to help you up when you fall and we'll ask you to give us a hand up At FPC we understand that we do life better when we do it together because no one alone is as strong as all of us together. We try to remember who we were before God called us to follow after Jesus - and we know that God isn't finished with us yet.
Connecting with God
Connecting with People
What makes the work of the church different from the work of any other civic club? Writing checks, handing out food and donating clothing and other charitable works are all part of the work of the church - "But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them?" Romans 10:14 NLT Our goal is to make certain that when people receive help from FPC, they'll hear that "Christ's love compels us" 2 Corinthians 5:14 to reach out to them.
