Our mission is to welcome and affirm all people as God’s beloved children, and to create kinship for those who seek a relationship with Jesus Christ. To that end, we are called to provide a spiritual home for the worship of God, to study and interpret the scripture, be guided by the Holy Spirit, and nurture a faith family.
With kindness and genuine caring, we strive to minister to each other and our neighbors as we support the mission and ministry of the Presbyterian Church (USA).
You Are Invited
We invite you to learn more about our family of faith at First Presbyterian Church of Qunicy. We hope that you will join us in friendship, fellowship and worship. Whether you are a long-time resident of Quincy, a newcomer or planning to relocate here, we want you to visit our church and consider making it your church home.
Our church offers a full traditional worship service in the reformed tradition as understood by the Presbyterian Church USA (PCUSA).
Worship Service
11:00 AM – Join us for an hour that includes anthems and hymns, announcements, and the rich liturgy of our denomination, including prayer, confession, and scripture-based preaching. Our very talented full choir leads the music with organ and piano accompaniment.
The service also may feature the church youth and children’s choirs, and special music by our Praise Band. The Lord’s Supper is regularly celebrated, and the Sacrament of Baptism is celebrated periodically when there is occasion.
Sunday Services
9:45 AM Fellowship
Before individual classes begin, we gather in the Fellowship Hall to greet one another, have coffee, an occasional snack, and often listen to a short devotional. This is a fun time for all ages and helps prepare us for the day of worship.
10:00 AM Sunday School
ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL
No matter your style of learning, we have a small group for you! Our adult classes offer a variety of styles including discussion, lecture, and lectionary-based study. Sunday school provides not only a time and place for learning but also opportunities for connections with others of faith.
CHILDREN’S SUNDAY SCHOOL
We want to be a place where your kids want to be! We offer many opportunities for kids to connect with God. We have many classes available to challenge and teach children from toddlers to high school students, all taught by enthusiastic and caring volunteers.
Nursery
A staffed nursery is available for infants and toddlers ages 3 and under from 9:45 AM–12:15 PM each Sunday. The nursery is located on the first floor of the Education Building in room 103.
Children’s Church
Following the children’s message in the worship service, younger children (ages 4 through 1st grade) are escorted by an adult volunteer to the Children’s Church. Children’s Church is located on the first floor of the Education Building in room 105.
“Oh come, let us sing to the LORD; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!”
– Psalm 95:1
For the musicians of First Presbyterian Church, worship of God is our highest priority. Through a variety of musical expressions, we seek to glorify God by pursuing true excellence in all we do. Our prayer is that our sacrifice of praise is a pleasing aroma to the Lord as we lead the community in worship services that inspire the heart and connect us as the body of Christ.
