God bless you,
Mark Northcutt
Pastor

My family, along with the family of First Assembly of God, would like to extend a warm welcome to you! It is our desire that you truly “enjoy” your visit on our website. Because we believe that the mission of the church is to LOVE GOD AND LOVE PEOPLE, we value meeting and making new friends.

If you are looking for a good step in your spiritual walk, try one of our Christian Education classes. These Bible studies are outstanding in quality and give you a chance to meet people in a smaller setting . Classes are held each Sunday at 9:30 a.m. and on Wednesday evenings at 6:30 p.m. We also have Care Groups, which is our Small Group Ministry.

I wish I could tell you about our wonderful family ministries, support groups, missions programs, and the rest. It really is a great church! As it is, let me extend a personal invitation for you to visit us again. If I may personally serve you in any way, please do not hesitate to call.

 

  • Bible classes for all ages
  • Child care - A nursery is provided for infants and toddlers. This loving, comfortable atmosphere helps show children at the earliest ages that church is a good place to be. Child care also frees parents for worship and reduces distractions.
  • Children’s worship - Bible-oriented activities are provided for preschool and elementary-age children. At this level, young children are taught to sing, pray, memorize Scripture and learn important Bible truths. They are instructed and led in worship at their own levels.
  • Music - Music is a major feature of our worship, before, during and even after the service itself. Instruments range from piano, guitars, horns and drums . Whatever the accompaniment, inspired singing is the order of the day. Any given service may include traditional hymns, hand-clapping gospel songs, contemporary compositions or reverent worshipful choruses.Music will include both congregational and special ministries — solos, duets, ensembles, choirs, instrumentals. Assemblies of God churches make music more than a performance; it’s the music of worship.
  • Worship experience - The service may include quiet times of waiting in God’s presence, spiritually savoring the sacred atmosphere. Other times may be vocal with collective praise as worshippers are invited to express love and adoration to God. Worship styles will reflect the spectrum of personalities. Some are quiet and reserved; some shout with joy; others are simply tender and openly emotional during times of praise or preaching. No sincere worshipper need feel out of place in our church.
  • Prayer - A special time in the service is devoted to prayer. Needs from inside and outside the church family frequently are made known.
  • Ministry to the sick - As in the New Testament, specific prayer may be offered for the sick. They will be invited forward to be anointed with oil (James 5:13-16) and/or have the ministers, leaders or other believers lay hands on them and pray (Mark 16:18).
  • Giving - During the service, tithes and offerings will be received. More than a collection to pay church bills, this too is worship. Our members feel giving the tithe (the first tenth of income) and offerings declares that God comes first. It recognizes His blessing, expresses faith and seeks His guidance in every matter in life. However, visitors need not feel obligated to give.
  • Spiritual gifts - An interesting aspect of Assemblies of God worship is the operation of spiritual gifts. The planned service order may be suspended as individuals speak or share as prompted by the Holy Spirit, under the supervision of the pastor (1 Corinthians 12-14).
  • Challenging messages - The climax of the service comes with the preaching of God’s Word, the Bible, and an invitation for hearers to respond. The messages are fervent, inspiring and practical. The pastor or speaker may close with an invitation for those who need forgiveness in their lives to come forward and accept Christ as Savior. Those who feel a need to rededicate their lives to Christ or to pray about other concerns are also invited to come. Believers are urged to ask God for the baptism in the Holy Spirit to further empower them for Christian service. Often everyone is invited to come pray during the altar service. Deep emotion and excitement may or may not be demonstrated at the altars, but everyone who calls on God in faith receives something.
