Our Outreach
The Outreach Committee of our Session is tasked with relating the Gospel to current social issues and community problems locally, within the United States and around the world. The Session has a financial goal each year of dedicating at least 10 percent of the operating budget to issues and programs that the church can support financially and locally through active participating by our members. A portion of the annual outreach budget is shared mission giving to Grace Presbytery, the Synod of the Sun and the Presbyterian Church (USA) for their ministries. Our designated mission partner through the PC(USA) is Dennis Smith. Dennis and he wife Maribel currently serve in Argentina. Click here for current informaition on their important ministry.
We urge our members to actively serve as volunteers or board members in those local agencies and programs we support, but they should not feel constrained to limit their services to them. Service is an individual choice.
In addition to our loyal support to our denomination’s mission efforts, both in the United States and around the world, First Presbyterian Church Waco is providing support to the following local organizations. Read more about these organizations by clicking these links:
Our volunteers deliver meals to over 100 people on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
