Missions
First Presbyterian Church of Berthoud is committed to doing all it can to serve God and neighbor in effective and creative ways. Our congregation supports a variety of missions, both local and worldwide, both independently and through our denomination, the PCUSA.
Some of the ways that our congregation works to share the self-giving love of Christ include:
Mission and Outreach Committee
Our church’s Mission and Outreach Committee works to identify and address needs and local, national, and global levels and works to equip the congregation to find out where God is calling them to reflect the self-giving love of Christ in their everyday lives.
Board of Deacons
FPC’s Board of Deacons is a pivotal ministry that works to share the light and love of Christ through caring ministries such as visiting homebound and hospitalized members and giving both time and financial resources to those in need.
Interfaith Hospitality Network (IHN)
Volunteers are always needed to support IHN. IHN is a non-profit agency that provides shelter, hot meals, and comprehensive counseling for resilient families who struggle to find a home. Various congregations in Larimer County share the responsibility for providing meals, shelter and mentoring. The First Presbyterian Church of Berthoud is a co-host approximately once a quarter. www.nihn.org
