Small Groups

Find a place to grow in faith, build friendships, and serve.

Our Small Groups meet at various times throughout the week for Scripture study, prayer and fellowship. We journey together in intentional faith development and try to expose ourselves to different ideas and perspectives, meet new friends and grow in Christ. All ages and newcomers are welcome. See below for a listing of the various groups and their meeting schedules.

Women at the Well

Women’s Ministry at First Presbyterian Church

Our calling is to nurture spiritual growth in the women of the church.
This is reflected in the name of our ministry, inspired by the Biblical account of Jesus’s encounter with the woman at the well. Like her, we thirst for knowledge and deeper understanding of God, drawn to the source of Living Water that grows and sustains our faith.
To that end, we offer day retreats twice a year. Each has a theme uniquely designed for Christian women seeking fellowship, inspiration, a bit of learning and, of course, fun! Additional events will be happening in the future.
If you have questions or suggestions for our ministry, you may contact our team leader, Lou Ann Karabel, at [email protected].

The Comfort Stitchers

Men’s Tuesday Noon Bible Study

We are always open to new and/or returning members.

We are currently studying “The Bible for Dummies,” which has been an interesting change to our traditional study format. We enjoy reading biblical history to gain a better understanding of each Book, Chapter and Verses. We use our study bibles to reread chapters and verses to stimulate additional discussion.
