First Presbyterian Church

About this church

First Presbyterian Church in Florence, Alabama, gathers for worship on Sunday mornings at 11 a.m. in its historic downtown building at 224 E. Mobile Street. The morning begins with a Coffee Café at 9 a.m., followed at 9:45 by nursery care and Sunday school for children, youth, and adults. The church describes its worship as grounded in traditional worship and music, teaching, and prayer, and the Chancel Choir rehearses at 10:30 before the service. Those who cannot attend in person can follow the service remotely on Facebook Live.

Children's ministry serves families from birth through sixth grade, with Bible stories explored in worship-focused and creative ways. Other listed areas include music, a college ministry, community outreach, a Matthew 25 ministry, and involvement with the Shoals Community Soup Kitchen. For a first visit, the main parking lot sits across the street from the Shoals Theatre, with a lower lot and street parking also available. The main entrance is beside the main lot, and the nursery is on the third floor by elevator. Members dress anywhere from traditional church clothes to casual, so visitors can wear what is comfortable. Special events change through the year, so confirm details on the website or by calling the church office.
