Kalamazoo First Presbyterian Church

About this church

Kalamazoo First Presbyterian Church worships Sundays at 10 a.m. with a traditional service shaped by organ, piano, choir, hymns, prayer, Scripture, and preaching. Guest instrumentalists sometimes add brass, strings, harp, oboe, guitar, or bagpipes, and a printed bulletin guides participants through the liturgy. Adult lectures and classes meet from 9 to 10 a.m., while a noon prayer service is offered Wednesdays. Sunday services are also released online at 10 a.m. Families may keep children in the sanctuary with activity folders or send preschoolers through fifth graders to Sunday School after the children's worship moment. On Communion Sundays, children remain to share the Lord's Supper.

A staffed nursery for infants and toddlers uses pagers to reach parents during worship; children age four and older may join Sunday School. School-year classes meet most Sundays, with a different summer format. The downtown building faces Bronson Park. Its parking lot is behind the church on Lovell Street, and South Street parking is free on Sundays; entrances are available on both sides. Music participation extends beyond worship through an adult choir for singers age 14 and older and a handbell choir that welcomes people without prior ringing experience. The visitor material does not identify a step-free entrance, assistive-listening equipment, nursery screening practices, or the typical service end time.
