Picnic near the church on a beautiful day
Our church went on a crop tour in July, touring the farms of some church members.
We asked people in our congregation why they come to The First Mennonite. Following are a few of their responses:
- Creative, spirit-led, Christocentric services with a biblical commitment to peace and justice in an atmosphere of warmth for all ages. (Hedy S.)
- First Mennonite gave me a very welcoming greeting as soon as I walked in the door. I felt part of the community immediately. I appreciate the blend of worship style and music. (Lorraine S.)
- We have a great youth group! We do service projects, play games and go on two retreats every year. It’s awesome! (Katie P., Katie F, and Amy T)
- I like the spirit of working together. (Lori L.)
- It’s a small church, with a commitment to social justice, music diversity and there’s a willingness to be friends with children. (Deb S.)
- I love that there is an intergenerational atmosphere where everyone gets to know everyone else. (Esther S.)
- I appreciate the way the pastor challenges us to increase and nurture our relationship with Christ. ( Joanne F.)
