Relationship are central to our lives. From family to friends to coworkers to the cashier at the grocery store, relationships give us purpose, provide opportunities to love, offer us shoulders to cry on, and listening ears when we need to talk. Our faith is built on a relationship, the relationship that we have with our Creator, Provider, and Savior. Everything we do, all that we are, goes back to this one relationship.

Here at First CRC we seek to extend and grow that relationship, whether it be in Bible studies, worship on Sunday, serving in the nursery, providing lunches at the food pantry, or shoveling our neighbors’ sidewalk. As Jesus taught, it all boils down to loving God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength and loving our neighbor as ourselves. And we make all of our relationships stronger and healthier by joining together.
