FPC Travels

The mission of Adult Formation is to encourage and inspire our congregation to become lifelong and faithful followers of Christ.  Just as much of Jesus’ ministry took place on roads and hillsides outside the synagogue, trips with FPC outside the walls of the church provide meaningful and transformational education.

FPC travelers immerse themselves in experiential learning, share their new findings with fellow travelers, and observe how studying in alternative contexts inspires fresh insights when they return home. Join FPC Travels for a first-hand look at how God is at work in the world. Contact Garrell Keesler, Director of Adult Formation for more information about FPC Travels.

Civil Rights Trip Alabama

Members of First Presbyterian and First United Presbyterian Church will embark on a transformative three-day journey to explore the history of the Civil Rights Movement in Alabama. We will visit iconic landmarks, engage in meaningful discussion, share moments of introspection, and connect with fellow travelers as we delve into the pivotal events that shaped our nation.

This immersive experience promises not only to educate but also to inspire and renew our commitment to justice and equality for all God’s people. Join us as we honor the legacy of those who fought for freedom and continue the journey towards a more just and inclusive future.

Registration opens January 22, 2025.

Greece: Following Paul’s Footsteps

AUGUST 25 – SEPTEMBER 6, 2025

Join the members of First Presbyterian Church by feeling the history of the New Testament come alive as we explore the ruins of the cities where the apostle Paul traveled including Thessaloniki, Philippi, Ephesus, Corinth, and Athens. A cruise of the Aegean Sea will take us to Patmos and other Greek Isles.

Pre-trip reading will prepare us to see how Paul shared the good news of Jesus Christ as he journeyed. We will return with new insights into how we too can spread the gospel message back home.

There will be an information session on October 20 at 12:15 p.m. in P212 Frances Browne and over Zoom.
