A committee is how we as Presbyterians get our work done: by working together  to achieve a common goal. Our church has seven committees.  They are: Adminstration/Planning, Christian Education, Congregational Care/Fellowship, Facilities, Mission/Evangelism, Stewardship/Visioning, and Worship Committees.

The Admin/Planning Committee consists of a minimum of three elders plus additional volunteers to provide oversight for the following:

Personnel matters, Budget, Church Office Operations, Special Funds, Annual Audit, Financial Reports, Memorial Book, Columbarium Garden, Presbytery Schedule, Church Elections, Congregational Meetings, Committee Assignments, Officer Handbook, and the Annual Calendar.

The Committee meets monthly on the First Monday of the Month at 7:00PM at the Church. Action items from the committee are presented to the Session for approval.
2008 Chairman is Bob Davis and Ann Reaser is Vice Chair.
Rev. Randy Stevens provides staff oversight to the Committee.

The primary goal of the Congregational Care Committee is to carry out the Session's responsibility to maintain an active and tight-knit congregation that is inviting to new members and nurtures the involvement of long-term members. The committee meets on a monthly basis and generates and fosters activities that will enable the comittee to meet its goals.

Dru Rothrock is the Chair of the Congregational Care Committee and Nancy Davis is the Vice-Chair.  Reverend Jody Moore provides staff support.

The Fellowship Committee plans meals, receptions, and other special fellowship events for our congregation.  This committee plans the 6 weekly Wednesday evening dinners prior to our Wednesday evening Lenten worship services, congregational lunches following the Sunday morning worship service, and lemonade on the lawn.

Bill Peterson is the Chair of the Fellowship Committee and Paul Cannaday is the Vice-Chair.  Reverend Jody Moore is the staff representative to the committee.

The role of the Mission/Evangelism Committee at First Presbyterian Church is to lead the congregation in ministries of personal and social healing and reconciliation in our community where we bear witness.  Leading the congregation to discover what God is doing in our church, community and world, planning for change, renewal and reformation under the Word of God is vital to our beliefs. 

By revealing the needs of our brothers and sisters around us,  we encourage congregational members to work towards fulfilling such needs by volunteering with and financially supporting agencies involved in meeting those needs.  

The Mission/Evangelism Committee meets the first Tuesday each month at 5:l5 PM..  Phil Payne is chairman of the committee and Rev. Jody Moore is the staff representative.  Other 2008 members include Lang Mauck, Cindy Franck, Darla Main-Schneider, Jim Stegall, Bill Kirby, Cora Nemec, Connie Garrett, Gael Chaney, Doris Marshall, Nancy Baker, Ron Dailey, Charlie Miller, Kim Boyd and Susan Pilson.
