All Are Welcome
Wonderfully created, redeemed, and sustained by God's love, we are freed to love ourselves and one another. In our corporate worship we ask for God's forgiveness, gratefully receive God's grace, and listen for God's truth in the words of the Scripture and sermon. Fed by the Word and inspired by the Spirit, we joyfully respond to God's love through the offerings of our means and our selves.
The First Presbyterian Church of Hackettstown, NJ is a Christian Church and a member of the Presbyterian Church USA.
Join us for worship this weekend!

The Chapel building at 291 Main Street is closed until further notice.

What's New at FPCH
"Pay it Forward Little Pantry" located on the front porch of our Chapel at 291 Main Street (next to the Old Presbyterian Burial Ground cemetery).
The concept is simple: take what you need, leave what you can. The good news is, this is open 24 hours a day, and is open to all. We're operating on the honor system: please take only what you need. And if you're leaving food, please note that we can only accept CANNED goods: no plastic, glass, or paper/cardboard containers please. Spread the word-we are so glad to be able to help others in these challenging times!
