First Presbyterian Church
"We have known and have believed the love that God has for us."
[1 John 4:16]
We have returned to in-person worship, and we encourage you to wear a mask and maintain social distance between households. We welcome you to join us either in person on on line each Sunday.

First Presbyterian Church is located in historic Palestine, Illinois, at the corner of Pike and Market. There is plenty of parking available near the church, and we have entrances on both Market Street and Pike Street. We have an elevator on the Pike Street side of the building for easy access to the sanctuary and basement area. We also have a more comfortable area for children who may find it difficult to sit in pews for the whole service.
Worship begins at 10:30 am (CDT). We invite you to join us in person, on line, or through our recorded worship services.
