Apportionment


First Presbyterian Church of Springfield is linked in ministry and mission with nearly 9,000 other Presbyterian churches which comprise the Presbyterian Church (USA) church denomination. We are together self-governed by representative elders at the congregational level, the Presbytery (local) level, the Synod (regional level) and the General Assembly (national) level. As with any organization, membership dues are necessary for administration. Our obligation as a member of the PC(USA) is referred to as “per capita” and this year the annual per capita amount is $37 per member. Please help with this obligation by covering your $37 membership amount by using the designated blue offering envelope marked “Apportionment” or annotate in the note field when giving on-line. 

First Presby needs a Nursery Aide on Sundays from 9:45 – 11:15 AM


Children range in age from infant to 3 years old. Responsibilities are to smile, and show tender care to the children. This is a compensated position. If you are interested, please contact Anna Greene, annadgreene@gmail.com.
