parking at first pres Part of making our church a welcoming place for guests is to make our campus as accessible as possible. The good news is, the church shares ownership in a parking garage across the street, and helps to maintain it so you can easily find free parking every Sunday and during the week. We leave street and on-campus parking for visitors, seniors and those who need extra accessibility to the buildings. If you are a church member and would like to purchase a parking card for the church garage for $10, please stop by the lobby desk at Edington Ministry Center during the week.

traditional worship Throughout the Scriptures, God uses time to communicate with His people of His love and care. Think about it. God being eternal and never not existing from before time was even time (!), is completely outside of time as we know it. Yet He humbled himself in stepping into time partly to communicate with His creation. In doing so, He established specific days in the year to teach us and remind us of what He has done. Leviticus 23 goes into some detail as to what He wanted His people to remember. We celebrate the Nativity, Lent, Holy Week, Easter, the Ascension, and Pentecost for that very reason. We are brought back again and again to God’s work on our behalf, but it is not an historical work simply to be remembered as some other historical event. There are living ramifications of Easter, Pentecost and so forth. Notice all the days mentioned are tied directly to God’s intervening in time on earth. Part of their purpose is to keep us Christ-focused as He lives His life in and through us. Today, Trinity Sunday, is a little bit unique in that it is the only day which is “doctrinal” in nature. We turn our attention not to a specific event in Jesus’ life, but to the nature of the Trinity. The opening of our worship today has a pointed Trinitarian focus. Join your voice to the hundreds of others as we worship our timeless God who dwells in the heavens and in the hearts of those sitting around you. - Dr. Dan Sharp
