Welcome to First Presbyterian Church of Grand Island

In Christ's Service

At First Presbyterian Church of Grand Island, Nebraska, we are a vibrant, Christ-centered community where families grow together in faith and everyone belongs. Whether you're new to church or looking for a place to reconnect, we invite you to remember God’s faithfulness, renew your spirit, and rejoice in the love and grace of Jesus Christ.

 



Palm Sunday -  March 29

Join us as we begin Holy Week with a joyful Palm Sunday celebration.

Our children will lead us in worship through song and a special palm branch processional, reminding us of Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem. We are also excited to welcome the Sodomka Brass, who will add a festive and powerful musical presence to the service.

After the service, middle and high school students are invited to head to Big Apple Fun Center for lunch and activities. Cost is $10.

Come be part of this meaningful and uplifting morning as we prepare our hearts for Easter.


Easter Sunday – April 5

Celebrate the joy of Easter with us!

After worship, we invite everyone to stay for a fun-filled time together. We’ll have an Easter egg hunt with hundreds of eggs and special prizes, along with outdoor activities like frisbee and kites. Families can enjoy a picture booth, sweet treats, and time together as a church community.

He is risen indeed!


Looking for a Church Home?

Whether you’re new to the area, returning to church, or simply searching for a place where your family can grow in faith together, you are welcome here. Our church is a community where children are known by name, questions are encouraged, and faith is nurtured with care, joy, and grace.

We offer engaging programs for children and youth, meaningful worship rooted in tradition, and a community that believes church should feel like home—not pressure. Come as you are. Bring your kids. Stay for conversation and connection.

We would love to walk alongside your family as you grow, serve, and discover the joy Christ brings. You are always welcome here.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. We’re always happy to help and get to know you.

The Presbyterian Easter Basket Showdown

As part of Project Hunger’s Easter Basket Extravaganza, we’re adding a little friendly competition for a serious cause.

Team Pastor Kevin and Team Britteny Beckstrom have each assembled a basket to support local ministries — but every dollar from your votes goes directly to Project Hunger and its mission in our city.

One dollar equals one vote.

Choose a side (or support both), help us aim for the highest bids yet, and turn a little bragging rights into a big impact for our neighbors.
