They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer…All the believers were together and had everything in common… And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. Acts 2: 42, 44, 47
So you've navigated your way around the internet and landed on our page – welcome! There is so much to do, see, and be a part of at Lebanon First. From our inspiring worship services to our involvement in the historic Lebanon community, there's a home for everyone in your family!
Each week we offer two different times and styles for you and your family to worship with us on Sunday morning. We start the day with an 8:30 am service, which has a more casual feel and includes praise, prayer and preaching. The second service of the morning, at 10:45 am, is more traditional and features our outstanding chancel choir, more formal liturgy, and the same inspiring preaching. The preaching of Rev. Peter Wehrly is Scripture-based and focuses on making practical applications of Biblical truths.
Our building is handicapped accessible via a ramp to the Sanctuary and on the street level to the Fellowship Hall. We have hearing assistance devices and large print bulletins and hymnals if you need them. You can participate in the service with the regular bulletin or take advantage of the modern projection system.
Please feel free to come as you are, enjoy donuts, coffee and Christian fellowship every Sunday morning! If you're worried about your little ones, you can rest easy knowing that there are plenty of safe places for them to stay active during the morning. We have a nursery and Sunday school classes offered every week. Oh, by the way, there are several adult Sunday school classes to choose from for the grownups.
So come on in and stay a while...you'll be glad you did!
