“God is light; In him there is no darkness...”
[1 John 1:5]
Welcome to the First Presbyterian Church U.S.A. in Gainesville! We are happy that you are interested in our church. Each Sunday morning, we have:
10:30 AM Morning Worship, and 11:30 AM Fellowship. A nursery is provided for parents who prefer to have their infants or toddlers cared for during worship. We are located at 401 S. Denton Street,
Gainesville, Texas.
The members of First Presbyterian Church are people with a mission: to share the love of Jesus Christ with each other, the community, and the world. We hope you will be able to visit us soon.
Again, welcome and "praise God from whom all blessings come"...
our church is open for Sunday worship! Service starts at 10:30 a.m. at 401 S. Denton Avenue. we hope to see you there soon! adult Bible study class at church every Friday morning in the parlor beginning at 10:00 a.m.
Dr. Vivian Thomlinson will bring our sermon on Sunday, March 8. The lesson title is "Cementing the Ties That Bind" and simultaneously she will be thanking the congregation for their LOVE OFFERING to her missionary Godchildren in Haiti last Sunday and reminds us that Jesus's gospel is not exclusive but inclusive. He wants no one to perish but ALL to be saved.
The scriptures for the lesson are John 4-42 and focus on the very first evangelist to the non-Jews, the Samaritan Woman at the Well, who talked with Jesus and then went back and told her townspeople that she had spoken to a man who could be the Messiah! And the people came and saw and heard Jesus for themselves and many believed.
Sometimes we may wonder if our mission dollars would be better spent on our local missions, our "own" people. But Christ's message is that we Christians are ALL part of the same family of Christ and worthy of helping and loving, whether next door or across the seas. Blessed be the tie, our Jesus, who binds us all as living stones of His church.
The service will begin at 10:30. Hope to see everyone there.
