New here?
Welcome
We’re glad you’re here and we’re excited to come alongside you as you begin exploring First Free. Here are or few of our suggestions to get started!
Welcome Experience
We offer a few welcome groups each year. The goal of these gatherings is for you to be able to be known, get some of your questions answered, see some of what we offer here at First Free, and of course you get some free food out of the deal!
Details on our next Welcome Experience will be coming soon!
Get plugged in!
Help us get to know you by filling out the Connect Card! Let us know a little bit about what you’re looking for or what brought you in, or just give us the basics of your name and email. Either way, we’ll be in touch shortly. We can’t wait to get to know you!
Masterpiece
Masterpiece is a group for those with special needs because First Free believes everyone is a masterpiece in God’s eyes (Ephesians 2:10). The mission of our Masterpiece classes and activities is to equip adults, youth, and kids with the knowledge and tools to connect with God in a personal way.
Kids
Pre-K–5TH GRADE • 10:30AM
NURSERY (BIRTH–AGE 2) • 9:00 & 10:30AM
Sunday morning experiences offer creative Bible teaching, energetic worship, and engaging activities. It’s the most fun place to be if you’re a kid!
what to expect
• Use the Kids entrance on the north side of the building.
• Our Welcome desk team will help you get checked in and direct you to your child’s room.
Youth
First Free Youth is a place where all the energy and craziness of middle and high school students is celebrated! We’re all about helping teenagers grow and thrive in their faith (and in all of life, really). Through fun and interactive experiences, students are invited to connect with others and engage with God.
Life Groups
Make a large church smaller
In Life Groups, we do life together. These small groups are a place to come together and build relationship as you follow Jesus with one another.
Ready to get plugged in? Let us know!
Mid-Sized Gatherings
Get in touch with others and learn more about First Free at one of our Mid-Sized Gatherings.
These groups are oriented toward different groups, such as newcomers, parents of young children, parents of youth, etc.
Our next gathering will be a Life Group interest lunch! If you’re curious about joining a Life Group or hearing more about them, this is for you! It’s coming up January 11!
Serve in Church
Serving is a great way to meet others while making a difference! There are lots of areas to volunteer in, like worship, greeting, pouring coffee, working with kids, and so much more!
Life Groups
Life Groups come alongside each other as they live out the Mission and Values of First Free. The main goal of Life Groups is for members to find a smaller community where they can go deep with each other. Ready to get plugged into an existing group or talk to us about forming a new group? Let us know.
Note: We try to match individuals with a group that would be a good fit for them. With many dynamics at play, this process can take a little time.

Baptism + Partnership
Baptism
celebrates someone entering a personal relationship with Christ and His family. Through baptism, we recognize that someone has died/been buried with Christ, has been washed by Christ through the forgiveness of sin, and that we are raised to new life in Christ, as adopted children in God’s family. By being baptized, you are ultimately telling the church that you are identified with Christ and belong to His family! Your baptism allows the church to celebrate your new life in Christ. Is this a step you’re considering for yourself or someone in your family? Learn more and sign up here.
Partnership
is First Free’s term for what a lot of churches call Membership. Partnership formalizes your commitment to the church, and the church’s commitment to you. The Partnership process involves you spending some time getting to know us through an informative class, and having the opportunity to get your questions answered. You will meet church staff, Elders, and leaders who want to know you, as well. Learn more
