Welcome
The First Presbyterian Church of Ashland welcomes and affirms the entire human family. We are committed to Christ's sacred hospitality, inviting people of all races, ages, genders, sexual orientations, and mental and physical conditions to join us. Through Christ's grace, we are dedicated to doing justice, loving kindness, and walking humbly with God.
Our congregation honors the fact that the land you are standing on is the ancestral homeland of the Shasta, Takelma, and Latgawa peoples, displaced in the 1850s by colonization and warfare and removed to reservations.
Please join us in person (masks are now optional). We have an 8 am service in the Heritage Chapel and a 10 am service in the sanctuary. If you joined us for the in-person 10 am service, you are invited to join us for fellowship in Calvin Hall following the service.
If you are more comfortable watching from home, please click on the button at the top to join us for our 10 am virtual worship service on YouTube.
If you joined us digitally, click on the button above after the 10 am worship service for virtual fellowship. The passcode is fellowship.
