First Presbyterian Church Of Oconto

First Presbyterian Church of Oconto is seeking a part-time (12-15 hours per week) Office Manager and Volunteer Coordinator.

Complete details and downloadable documents available on the  Immediate Opening page.

Come join us for the sermon series: “Being a Christian IRL (In Real Life)”

For many, the “virtual” world of social media has become a real world; TV and movies are no longer clearly “entertainment” but are perceived as reality. Our world has become too compartmentalized. We have even begun to compartmentalize the very character of our life – we behave differently in different settings.  What we do in our personal life may be different than what we do at work.

We can’t do any of that when it comes to our relationship with God.

As Christians, we need to stop “pretending” and truly come face to face with Jesus; we need to be real and honest with Jesus about who we are; we need to strengthen our relationships with God and with each other.

• April 15           Resurrection IRL
• April 22           Repentance IRL
• April 29           Love IRL
• May 6               Discipleship IRL
• May 13             Relationships IRL
• May 20            The Body of Christ IRL
• May 27            The Holy Spirit IRL (also Pentecost and Memorial Day Weekend)

Come celebrate this Season of Easter (the 50 days from the Sunday of Resurrection to Pentecost Sunday) by cultivating the new way of life in Jesus Christ — in which we are “dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus” (Rom. 6:11), called to “walk in newness of life” (Rom. 6:4) — as we await its completion in the fullness of Christ’s reign.

Please join us on Thursday evening for our Maundy Thursday pot-luck at 5:30 and worship service at 6:30.

This year there will be two opportunities to participate in the Ecumenical Good Friday service. Noon at First Presbyterian and 7:00 PM at First American Lutheran.

Our Easter Sunday worship will be at 10:15 AM.

We invite you to use this Holy Week Devotional Guide to journey with Jesus from his triumphant entry into Jerusalem through his resurrection.

Your Deacons will be packing the Easter baskets on April 1 before church.

If you know of anyone who could use a little help please contact any Deacon.

We could use some Easter candy for the children.  Also canned meats, vegtables & fruits, peanut butter, crackers, pasta’s, cereals & dessert items are needed for our Deacons’ Food Pantry (not to be confused with Bread by the Bay’s current needs)

Thank-you for your loving support.

Join us each Wednesday evening at 6:30 pm for a brief casual service in the Fireside Lounge to experience different perspectives of what it might have looked like at the foot of the cross. Mary Magdalene, Simon of Cyrene, The Centurion, John, Mary, Peter and more.
