The Hands and Feet of Christ
First Presbyterian Church believes that mission is crucial to the life of the church. As believers, we are called to actively spread God’s words and love to make a positive difference in the world, whether it be our loved ones, or strangers from another country. First Presbyterian actively supports local, state, national and international missions.

FPC Welcomes a New Mission Partner: Prevail, Inc.
Prevail, Inc fights violence and domestic abuse
The FPC Mission Team is thrilled to introduce our newest mission partner, Prevail, Inc., a Noblesville-based nonprofit dedicated to supporting adults, teens, and children who have experienced trauma from domestic violence or sexual abuse/assault.
Earlier this year, members of our team toured Prevail and were deeply moved by the powerful ways they empower and serve survivors of all ages. Did you know that simply witnessing an act of violence can negatively impact mental health? That’s why Prevail is also expanding its community outreach to partner with local schools to help promote healthy relationships to prevent violent acts and offer support at the first sign of need.
When we asked, “How can FPC help?”, the answer was surprisingly simple: Bottled water. This basic necessity is always needed for both clients and staff. We made our first donation last Spring and it’s time for another opportunity.
How can you help?
We’re looking for 2–3 volunteers to help transport 6–8 cases of bottled water from Costco to Prevail a few times a year (typically on weekdays). It’s an easy, impactful, and meaningful way to serve through FPC. Contact Rita Popp at (317) 408-0554 to express interest.
