Jesus Loves You!!
Welcome
Welcome, and thank you for visiting Schaller First Presbyterian Church online. We hope that our website highlights the wide variety of worship, fellowship and service opportunities available. Please feel free to read more about our church on this site, or come in for a visit. We would love to greet you and share with you our love for Jesus Christ and for you, our neighbor. We are all children of God, AMEN!!
Our Thoughts
We believe that the door to salvation is always open and so are the doors to our church. Our mission is to be fully devoted to Jesus by opening our arms to those in search of the truth. We show God’s love and concern for our fellow man at every opportunity. Through works of charity and opening our doors to listen and love, we feel that we are walking in the footsteps of Jesus Christ.
Our Mission Statement
The First Presbyterian Church of Schaller is a body of people committed to teaching the Word of God and encouraging personal commitment to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. We exist to develop spiritual awareness and fulfill spiritual needs through worship, study, prayer, service. We desire to develop a sense of personal call to follow Jesus Christ and serve His Church so that God's love may be shown in the community around us regularly in practical ways.
