Coming Soon: FY27 Pledge Drive

First Church: Here for Times Like These

Sunday, March 1:
Please join us for the Campaign kick-off lunch after service.
Sandwiches and drinks will be provided, but potluck contributions of sides or sweets are welcome!

March Stewardship Potlucks:
Bring your calendar on the 1st, and sign up for a potluck at one of our members’ homes.

Each Spring, we hold a pledge drive which provides an approximation of member giving for the upcoming fiscal year. While the fy26 drive has concluded, it is not too late to add a pledge, and general contributions to the church are welcome at any time.

We are grateful to all who are part of the First Church community and for the ways that you help create this increasingly vibrant place for worship, fellowship and social action. Everyone’s contribution, whether of time, money, or both, makes the First Church in Salem the welcoming place that it is.
