The change First Presbyterian Church will seek is new life, marked by joy, justice, righteousness grace and love in Edmond and the world. We will be a community of people who each live out a personal culture of discipleship marked by our Seven Core Practices. (Share Who You Are, Care for One Another, Read Scripture Together, Pray Together, Invest in People, Serve Community and Create and Send Leaders) We will focus our attention and resources to see lives transformed and changed outside our congregation through an encounter with Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit.

We believe that God has called us to participate in His vision of NEW LIFE through JESUS for EDMOND and the WORLD. How do we do this?  We Gather for worship and community, Grow in intimacy and understanding and Go to serve and share.  

Although we all serve in different ministry contexts and live in our own sphere of influence, we have committed to be a community of people who each live out a personal culture of discipleship marked by our 7 Marks of a Disciple:

Share Your Story
Invest in Others
Read the Word
Pray Faithfully
Worship Passionately
Serve Community
Give Generously

These simple practices challenge us to continue to cultivate relationships with the people around us as we share new life through Jesus.  We want to help you integrate these core practices into your rhythm of life where ever you may be.  Whether you are from our particular church community or building the Kingdom in other parts of the world, we pray these stories, tools and tips will serve you well.
