Visitors Welcome to FPC

First Presbyterian Church of Conroe welcomes you to our church. If you are interested in learning more about our church or wish to become active in our ministry teams and activities, please fill out the “Welcome” card located on the inside of the attendance pads and at the Welcome Desk. The completed cards can be placed in the collection plate or given to one of the ushers.

Welcome Family Promise

This week the church will be home to families who are participating in Family Promise. Family Promise is our mission partner, assist-ing families in transition. We are honored to host these families and to be a part of their lives. Please note that some regularly scheduled events have been moved to different locations for this particular week.

Thank You

We want to thank everyone who sent get well cards, placed phone calls and prayed for us during Judy’s recent illness. The prayers kept us both going during the rough times.
