It is our pleasure to introduce First Congregational Church’s 2024 recipients of the Debra Kay Pehrson Scholarship Award. Because a scholarship has not been given the last several years, the Called to Care Team (on behalf of the Board of Trustees) selected two candidates to receive awards this year.

The Green Team hopes to help our faith community focus on just one or two items or ideas you and/or your family can try each month: to reduce our carbon footprint; suggest ideas for what you can specifically do; reinforce our monthly ritual in Worship; bring hope to our efforts individually and together on Climate Justice. The April focus is: Walk, bike or take public transport.

First Congregational supports many justice activities and actions. We also support many community agencies and organizations doing Justice work. Here is a list (as of April 1, 2024 – No April Fool’s Joke!) of where YOUR support is going, SO FAR in 2024!!
