Special COVID Announcement

Dear Believers of First Pres. Villa Rica,
    After almost six months of suspending in-person Sunday morning activities with the exception of Worship, we are excited to announce the resumption of both infant and toddler nurseries beginning September 20th (both services), and the resumption of all Sunday morning activities beginning October 4th. Both morning Worship services will be maintained, with a shift in start time of both services to accommodate Sunday School (for all ages) and fellowship time. Children’s Church will also be offered during the 11 AM service.
    We make this decision following our nation’s efforts to return to normalcy but not with disregard to the continued threat COVID-19 is to us. Please know that procedures will be in place to ensure the safety and health of all.

Sunday Schedule:

0830-0930 Worship 1 (Parking lot) This ‘Tailgate Service’ will move inside if there is inclement weather, and inside beginning October 25th for the winter.
0930-1000 Break / Fellowship Please join us for this important time of fellowship for all.
1000-1045 Sunday School for all Ages
1045-1100 Break
1100-1200 Worship 2 (Sanctuary, Fellowship Hall, and Live-stream)

    We thank the Lord for His faithfulness to us and for His hand of protection. Thank you for your support, encouragement and love for each other during these challenging times. Special thanks to Jeannie Forlaw for her work in her new role as Children’s Ministry Director and for the coordination of both the Children’s Education and Worship Committees in putting together our resumption plan.

May we continue to labor together in love for the sake of the gospel and God’s kingdom,
The Session


As we approach our kick off date of October 4th for Sunday School and Children’s Church, I would like to
announce the following needs.

  1. A Sunday School teacher for our 3-4 year olds. Our new Sunday School time will be 10:00-10:45.
  2. Volunteers for Children’s Church for the 8:30 and 11:00 Services. This program is led by a two person team,
    preferably husband and wife. You may sign up for either service for one month. If you sign up to serve during
    the 8:30 service, you are free to attend the 11:00 service, and vice versa.

Please prayerfully consider being a part of these rewarding ministries of our church. Please send an email the church office or to Jeannie to sign up.

Thank you,
Jeannie Forlaw
Children’s Ministry Director

    How can I listen to today’s (4/21/2019) sermon online?

      To listen to sermons, go to the home page, scroll down to the section “Love the Lord with All Your Heart”, then click on either the headphones icon, or “View All Sermons”. The link will take you to the last sermon that has been uploaded. It appears that it is currently taking about two weeks to get a sermon uploaded. It looks like there is room for at least two improvements: 1. Sermons need to be easier to find on the site, and 2. Perhaps a volunteer is needed who would take on the ministry of recording and uploading the sermons on a ‘same day’ basis.

Our congregation exists to worship and glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. We believe that Jesus Christ is alone – Lord and Savior of sinners. Our church proclaims the Gospel of God’s Infallible, Inerrant and inspired Word to all who will hear.

We preach. teach, disciple, and encourage without apology the Changeless Gospel of God’s Saving Grace; The Faith once and for all delivered to the saints; and Our loving worship is offered in Truth to Our Triune God, for the glory of Christ, by the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit.
