As pastor of First Presbyterian Church-Benton, I am pleased to welcome you.

Our church's prayer is that everyone who worships with us will find strength and encouragement for their faith journey. 

I invite you to take a "virtual tour" of our church, check out our many activities, and look at the opportunities for joining in our life with Jesus Christ.  Even though a website cannot compare with the experience of joining in worship with the FPC-Benton church family, we hope to give you the feeling of welcome you will experience when you visit.

In my time here, I have found First Presbyterian to be a warm, caring church family.  I trust that you will find that as well.

Our Hope for God's People
The Reverend Kris Crawford shares our beliefs.

With Reverend Kris leading the way, we expect to stir God's people to renewed hope and growth.  Our intention is to engage our congregation, our elders and deacons, and our members in a continuing process of discovery, thereby leading to a community of greater inclusiveness.  Together we welcome the fresh winds of change and the ministry opportunities that abound in our community.
