* *    FIRST CHURCH      "FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU"     **

and the congregation said....

"We have in mind a wondrous church...For people far and near,
    On entering one will see this sign...LOVE IS SPOKEN HERE
Peace, We'd sell to anyone...And take his sword in trade
For Brotherhood, We'd just require...A pound of hate be paid

We'd swap a lot of Happiness...In return for lust and greed
Our food, We'd give the hungry...No payment, just the need
      We'd have a sale on Faith and Hope...And take in doubt and fear
Charity, we would price so low...That want would disappear

    We'd sell the world, This wondrous church...For just a single tear
            No need for sorrow, when at last..."LOVE IS SPOKEN HERE"
in America and the World ...JH

          This is our church and I feel fortunate that circumstance lead me here. I have found the church that provides an excellent ministry, complete in every way from pastor, music director to staff and congregation. It is truly wonderful! It is hard to describe the beauty of "First Church" from its Gothic exterior to its magnificent sanctuary replete with a famous "Casavant Freres"" organ. There is something here for everyone! Best of all is the friendliness and caring, one for another. Won't you join us and experience it for yourself?    WELCOME!
