Transforming Lives!

Pastor Laura Saunders
There are so many options in life calling for our attention.
We can constantly be asking ourselves, “Should I look into this? Will I fit in? What can I expect if I visit?” All good questions to consider.
Franklin First is a modest-sized church that has a family feel.
We have a few main goals:
- to grow in our faith journey, whether we are seasoned believers or just getting started
- to welcome new friends, and
- to serve our community by being the hands and feet of Jesus.

Advent Sermon Series

Advent Sermon Series
The season of Advent precedes Christmas, and we observe Advent on the four Sundays before Christmas – this year beginning December 1.
Our Advent focus this year will be on the some of the common folk of the Christmas story. We will consider Zechariah, Joseph, and the Shepherds to discover how God was with them in their unusual circumstances.
God is with us in our unusual circumstances as well, even though it may be easier to see God’s presence in retrospect.
Let’s make sure that in the busyness of the holiday season,
we make Jesus our focus.
Where guests become friends & searchers become believers!
Be Our Guest
God is waiting to welcome you, and so are we.
Join us for worship this weekend!
