...existing to know Jesus and make Him known...

At Walla' Pres, we try to be real, fun, intentional, relevant, and growing. We want everyone who runs into us to feel welcomed and valued... wherever they are in their lives and their walk with the Lord. Sometimes we do that, other times we miss the goal; but that's ok... we aren't expected to be perfect!

Feel free to drop by sometime, read more about us and see what we're up to on our blog and facebook, or check out the links to the right. Come grow with us...

So many things going on this month as we enter the Holyday season! Here are some highlights to make note of:

  • December 2nd: Stone Soup, Turkey Bowl, Pizza, & a Movie
      • Can we fit any more into a single day? Well, yes, but we won't.
    • 9:00am: Come to the church kitchen to help prepare Lunch for the congregation.
    • 10:31am: Worship Service for everyone!
    • 11:45am: Stone Soup Lunch (all-church)
    • 1:00pm: Annual Flag Football Turkey Bowl in the Big Yard.
    • 2:00pm: Pizza & a Movie down in Youth Cave 2.0
      • (no regular youth groups)
  • December 19th: Christmas Caroling
    • Meet at the church at 6:30pm and we'll head around town bringing the joy of song to many who are shut-in and unable to venture out to enjoy the season of Christmas. Cookies and Cocoa will be enjoyed after we're done around 8:00pm.
  • December 21st - 22nd: High School Lock-In
    • 9th - 12th graders come to the church around 8:00pm for an all-nighter of games, candy, movies, tacos, Nerf wars, Flamingo games, Bacon Maple bars, and more! Come when you can, leave when you have to. It could be a good idea to bring Nerf gear and a Sleeping Bag with Pillow... just in case.
  • December 23rd: Youth Christmas Party (6:00pm)
    • 6th - 12th graders come together to celebrate Christmas during this time of food, song, videos, games, and a white-elephant gift exchange (keep it under $5, regift something you didn't want, or wrap something you found around the house).
  • December 29th: Epic Movie Day (2:00pm - 9:00pm)
    • Come watch all 3 Jurassic Park movies, complete with Dino-hats for the first 10 students or so. Dinner will be served in between II and III. Feel free to act out your favorite part!
December 24th: Christmas Eve Services.
We hope that you and your families will join us for one or more of our Christmas Eve services here at First Presbyterian. 5:00pm is our Kid Friendly service, with a play by church staff, lots of songs, story-time, little-kids bell choir, and a simpler presentation of the Christmas story. 7:00pm is a traditional English "Lessons & Carols" worship service with many songs of old, the Christmas story, and more. If you're a late night person, our 11:00pm service is a Contemplative, quieter time of worship. Candle light, acoustic guitars, and Communion focus us on the true meaning of Christmas: "Unto us a child is born!"

*Join our Facebook group for CREW (mid-high) or DEEP (sr-high).
