How We Minister & Serve

Mission & Ministry Opportunities

We at First Presbyterian Church - Willoughby have accepted the challenge of PC(USA) to be a Matthew 25 church.  We are committed to follow Jesus’ teachings in Matthew 25:31-46 by becoming active disciples and making a difference in our community and the world.

​There are many ways to serve and many ways to become involved in the missions and ministries at The First Presbyterian Church - Willoughby.  The missions and ministries involve members and groups of the church in hunger alleviation, peacemaking, and other community ministries.
