You are invited to a dinner and presentation to benefit Tank Elementary School on Tuesday, February 17,  from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Fox Heights Pub and Grill, 217 N. Washington St., Green Bay.  You will learn about First Presbyterian Church’s relationship with Tank Elementary School and the many personal, economic and educational challenges its students face.  In addition to Outreach Committee member Stephanie Fahringer, you will hear from Tank Principal Ellen Van Pay, and Ben’s Wish representative Pete DeLain.

The cost is only $15.00, and includes Fox Heights’ Tailgate Buffet. This event is open to all. Please bring a friend as we seek to "Do the Story" of God's mission in our community! Call the church office at 920-437-8121 to help give us an accurate count.

First Presbyterian has a new, double-sided, digital sign that brightens up Ashland Avenue.  The sign was made possible by two major gifts.  A team of church members solicited designs and bids, and chose a model designed by Creative Sign. In addition to displaying text, we can show photos and video clips on the large message board.

One of the strategic elements of a missional church is communication.  Our new digital sign is a step forward in this direction. We also recently approved the formation of a new Committee called “Communication and Marketing.”  We hope to improve our messaging so that others will join us as we participate in what God is doing in our community and world.

Our new electronic giving program offers convenience for you and much-needed donation consistency for our congregation. If you are currently giving on a weekly basis, you will no longer need to write out 52 checks a year or prepare 52 envelopes. And, when travel, illness or other circumstances prevent you from attending services, this program will allow your weekly offerings to continue on an uninterrupted basis.

To get started, send an email to our Office and Finance Manager Carol Houston indicating your desire to participate in online giving.  After she confirms, you can return here and click on the GIVE ONLINE button and follow the directions. The process is very user friendly.  To create your account, you will be asked for your bank information.

Volunteers at the Pantry ask for donations of cans of peas during the month of January.  Your gift is a partnership with Christ in feeding the hungry.  Place your cans in the shopping cart at church or leave them in Banner Hall.
