Who We Are

WELCOME TO 1st PRES

1st Pres is proud to be a congregation of the Presbyterian Church USA, (PCUSA), a faith tradition with deep theological and historical roots. Here in Coeur d’Alene, we joyfully serve our community as we pursue our mission to love first. We are a warm and welcoming church with a strong sense of belonging and a powerful commitment to each other and to God. In celebration of our diversity, we practice a blended style of worship that marries the sacramental traditions instituted by Christ with a youthful freedom and energy. Our doors are open and we invite anyone to come and share in this love and warmth as they journey with us in the mission to love first.
