Classes & Programs
(Christian Education Wing)
First Pres is offering free resources and consulting for people looking for new employment opportunities. Our Career Transition Resources program helps our members and the larger community deal with one of the realities that has come about during the last few months: increased involuntary job loss. Experienced HR members are available to help with such actions as resume building, practice interviewing, career planning, and more.
If you would like to be connected with our Career Transition Team, or know of others who might want career guidance, please send an email to ctr@firstpresah.org. You will be contacted shortly thereafter to confidentially discuss how we can best help you.

MIND, BODY, SPIRIT: THE TRINITY
OF CONNECTING WITH GOD
Wednesdays, September 22 – October 20
7:00 pm / Sanctuary / Rev. Alex Lang
Spirituality is an essential aspect of being a Christian, and yet, we each experience spirituality in a unique way. In this class, Rev. Lang will examine the various methods employed by Christians to form their spiritual connection with God and how our spirituality is expressed through our mind, body and spirit.
