First Presbyterian Church of Edgewood
Believing we are called together by God's love through Jesus Christ,
our mission as the First Presbyterian Church of Edgewood is to
love God, to love each other, and to love our neighbors.
What does church mean to you? 
How do you make a difference in a world filled with hate, pride, greed, and selfishness? 
How do you find comfort in times of trouble?


At First Presbyterian Church of Edgewood, we are trying to figure that out every day…

We live in a constantly changing world. It is more and more difficult to figure out how to live a Christian life amidst all of the pressures to "be yourself" and to "control your own destiny." We at FPCE know that you don't have to be alone in this world - that there is someone along for the ride who wants to help, but is just waiting to be asked.

We don't claim to have all of the answers to life's problems, but we know who does, and we are in constant conversation with God in everything that we do…worship services, bible studies, picnics, festivals, movie nights, musical concerts, mission outreach projects.

Jesus said "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you." (Matthew 28:19-20). 

We take that charge very seriously through many different ministries and programs at Edgewood.
  • In recent years, we have sent missionaries to Alaska to run a vacation bible school program, and to Mexico to build houses for underprivileged families.
  • We host an after school and summer enrichment program for children in the community. Our volunteer staff works with children in grades K-3 by offering tutoring, play time, Bible studies, crafts, snacks, and more.
  • We are in a partnership with a congregation in Malawi, Africa through the Presbyterian Church, USA. We have sent several people over and welcomed many of their members. We continue to help them in the construction of their church building.
  • We open our doors at Thanksgiving for a community meal together. We serve 100 meals each year to local families, elderly, EMT, fire, and police workers.
  • And we have fun together, too! A Strawberry festival, Concert Series, picnics, dinners, and more make up the life of this warm and friendly congregation.
We have a place for you, too. All are welcome to any of our events, and we offer worship services to meet, strengthen, and challenge your faith.

Please know there is a place for you in the fellowship of this "Community Church." We invite you to come get acquainted, and to become a part of an active, working church which provides enriching opportunities for people in every walk of life.
