Join a Group
Small groups are a vital part of our ministry at First Church. They allow people of all ages to learn, grow in faith and connect in meaningful ways. Many of our groups are drop-in so there is no expectation that you make every meeting or event. We want to get to know you so come join us in a group or two!

Justice Groups
Racial Justice Team
Broaden engagement within our church community in matters related to white privilege, implicit bias, and the impact of systemic racism through facilitated conversations, book studies, hosting speakers, and getting involved with church and/or community groups with similar goals. We offer ways to put racial justice into action. Long term, we envision FCC, in partnership with the UCC with its long history of commitment to racial justice, to be seen as allies to people of color and a leading voice for racial justice in our community and beyond.
