Christ welcomes all here.

The First Presbyterian Church of Bowling Green is a Christian community focused on glorifying God by being:
  • welcoming in worship
  • inclusive by intention

  • steadfast in loving God and neighbor
Our worship and our downtown facility are creatively traditional  - our commitment to mission and service is innovative and relentless.  We strive, in all facets of our common life and mission, to be a church "where Christ welcomes all." - Mission Statement, 2012
 
We are a community of believers who worship and serve God in a changing world. Our congregation fosters relationships with Bowling Green University faculty, students and staff. We welcome and affirm persons of every race, gender, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, nationality, ethnicity, family status, economic status, and physical, mental, or emotional ability into full participation in our faith community.

Confirmation will be on Pentecost Sunday, May 19 

This year we will celebrate the gift of the Holy Spirit and the birthday of the Church in a remarkable service featuring children and youth.    A high point will be the welcoming of the Confirmation Class into the fellowship of the church.  These young people have been meeting with the pastors and our youth worker for a year and a half, and are ready to take their place as adult members of the congregation.  They are:  Andrew Codding, Ashley Cochrane, Megan DeVries, Morgan Kellow, Allie Larson, Evan McClurg, Allison Swanka, and Makellen Weisert.  As they prepare for their big day, let us keep them all in our prayers. We invite the congregation to wear red, the traditional Pentecost color.
