“You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house.”
 
Matthew 5:14-15

In 2023, we introduced a focus for the year called Back Together. In 2024, we built on that focus as we encouraged our congregation to be All In for Jesus and His church. This year we’re excited to embrace being On Mission as we seek to focus more on reaching out to the world around us to share God’s love. 

  • Prayer. We’re encouraging our congregation to set an alarm to pray at 9:38 am each day for God to send more workers into His fields (Matthew 9:38).
  • Training. We don’t expect everyone in our church family to be experts at evangelism, so that’s why we’re creating opportunities for you to be trained and equipped to share God’s love.
  • Outreach. One of our distinctive values is that Outreach is for Everyone! Throughout the year we’ll bring you opportunities to serve in ways that impact our community and world.
  • Misison Base. Any good mission has a base! We’re looking into ways to make First Free the best place it can be to host our neighbors and launch out into the world.

Facility Upgrades

We’re dreaming big about how to make First Free both a neighborhood hub, where people feel comfortable regardless of their faith background and the best possible launchpad for our congregation to head into their mission fields – whether that be their homes or across an ocean.
