Pastor Mary Beth McCandless

We are all God’s children, and all are welcome in God’s house

I believe faith has inward and outward dimensions; that as God pursues a loving relationship with us, we are called to a life deeply rooted in God; and that as we become deeply rooted in God, we naturally reach beyond ourselves to share ourselves with people beyond us. I believe that every person has value and that the circumstances of our lives (age, gender, intelligence, wealth, etc.) do not limit (or multiply) that value. God loves us and compels us live expansively generous lives – loving others the way Jesus has modeled love for us. This is our work: to love one another as Christ has loved us.

Pastor Mary Beth McCandless

A House of Prayer for All People

What We Believe​

We care passionately for one another and work hard to see that justice and righteousness thrive in our world. 

God Is Love

First Presbyterian Church is called to embody God’s love, made known in Jesus Christ, in life-giving ways, and to engage with God in transforming lives, communities, and institutions, to reflect God’s goodness.

We Are All Disciples

We believe that faith is best expressed in word and deed, and that we are called to live our lives as examples, however imperfect, and as generous expressions of gratitude to God and service to others.

The Spirit Empowers​

 We believe that “faith seeking understanding” is a significant part of the life of a disciple. We continue to discover what the Bible says, who Jesus was and who he calls us to be, and who we are as Presbyterian Christians.
