First Christian Church - Omaha

First Christian Church continues to make a difference in our community, our region and the world. We make a difference in extravagant ways and in small acts of kindness, as a congregation, as a denomination and as an ecumenical community. We make a difference through our wallets and by the sweat of our brow. We make a difference because we believe that while the kingdom of God awaits us, we are meant to be people helping to bring more of heaven to earth every day.We give 10% of our pledged income away to our denomination and local community organizations. In addition our congregation give generously to special offerings that combat racism, fund Disciple universities and help new church plants. First Christian received the William T. Gibble award from Child Saving Institute in 2007 and again in 2013 for our support of their work with children and families. We serve at the Heart Ministry Center monthly. We have recently sponsored refugees through Lutheran Family Services. We partner with the Church of Jesus Christ Whole Truth to serve a Thanksgiving meal. We celebrate with our brothers and sisters of different denominations and religions at our Interfaith Thanksgiving Service.We also equip Christians to be leaders in the community. We gather together for Bible study and Sunday school. We go on pilgrimage and enjoy retreat together. We provide our kids age-appropriate Sunday school lessons. We offer children the chance to meet with a mentor and attend a class with a Pastor, so they can decide if they want to make a commitment to follow Jesus.
