Christmas Eve Service 
Sunday December 24, 2023
Scripture: Isaiah 9:1-7

Speaker: Rev. Jared Ayers

Christmas songs and hymns are some of the most well-known music in the world. Even those unfamiliar with Christian faith or unconnected to the Church are often familiar with some of this season’s songs- even if just as background music at a store or in a commercial, or at a holiday party. Or maybe as a half-remembered tune from childhood.

This year, we’ll be reflecting together on several of the texts from Scripture that feature in the great hymns and songs of the season. They express in powerful fashion the deep human longings we give space for in Advent, and the hope of the Good News we celebrate at Christmas. So whether you’re just beginning to consider faith, or are a longtime Christian, plan on joining us at FPC as we listen to the music of the Christmas Gospel.

In 1963, a small group of people began meeting together and praying about starting a new church community in the northern part of Palm Beach county. This small group, which first began worship services by renting space at a preschool on Prosperity Farms Road, was the beginnings of First Presbyterian Church!

Through the month of November, we’ll be reflecting on God’s work through FPC over the last six decades, celebrating our community’s 60th birthday, and looking ahead towards our next phase of life, mission, and service to our neighbors. Whether you’ve been around FPC for quite some time, or are brand new, you’re invited to join us as we celebrate what God’s done here and to be a part of the next chapter of our story!

Scripture: Deuteronomy 8:1-18 

Speaker: Rev. Jared Ayers

We often think of spirituality and religion as our search for God- humanity’s attempts to find our way toward our Creator. But the Scriptures don’t depict our search for God- they narrate the living God’s search for us. This fall, we’re listening to several of the questions posed by God in the Scriptures. We’d love for you to join us, wherever you are in your own journey of faith, this fall at FPC to listen to the questions God asks, and experience God pursuing you, finding you, and transforming you in Christ Jesus.
