Sermons from First United Presbyterian Church

Watch the sermon here A Very Louis Christmas Yesterday morning, Louis got up REALLY early. Can you imagine why? Louis was SO excited for Christmas morning to FINALLY be here.

  Watch the Sermon from Sunday here The First United Presbyterian Church of Loveland “Close to Home: Laying the Foundation” Rev. Amy Morgan December 5, 2021 First Reading:  Philippians 1:3-11 I thank my God every time I remember you, constantly praying with joy in every one of my prayers for all of you, because of your sharing in the gospel from the first day until now.
