Active Hope Training Session Active Hope Training Session
–
February 5, 2022A few years ago, the church studied the book Active Hope, which tells us "We have to choose our attitude about the climate crisis, hope our despair. We don't know if humanity will respond wisely, but we don't know that we won't either. So we have to choose our attitude."
The Climate Action Team worked the follow-up program "Active Hope Training" this summer and liked it so much, they are starting a new session on October 30. They will meet every other Saturday, skipping Christmas. The link to register is on the church website under Climate Action Team as well as here.

Blood Drive @ First Church Blood Drive @ First Church
–
February 27, 2022The Houston area continues to experience a critical shortage of blood. Blood donations have declined drastically since COVID-19 because the Blood Center had limited ability to partner with most of its “old faithfuls”, namely high schools, colleges, and companies. Join us to help save lives right here in Houston! You are eligible to donate if it has been at least 2 months since your last blood donation, and if you meet the Blood Center’s other requirements. The last blood drive hosted at First Church was on November 7th, 2021. If you are willing and eligible, please visit https://www.commitforlife.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/346993 to schedule your donation time on Sunday, February 27th. Pre-registration is required.
