Family Ministries
First Presbyterian Church of Manasquan seeks to be a place that supports Christian families. We do this throughout the various ministries in worship, education, fellowship and service. We offer special assistance for couples preparing for a Christian marriage, for families seeking baptism for their child, for parents desiring support in their parenting and for couples desiring to enhance their relationships.
Planning a Christian Wedding
We are delighted to help you explore a Christian wedding at First Presbyterian Church. The process begins by contacting the church office and making arrangements to meet with one of our pastors. A date can then be set, and a marriage preparation mentoring relationship can be established. For more information, you may email us or view a copy of our “Guide to Planning Your wedding.”
Baptism for Children
A significant part of baptism is making a declaration of our faith in Jesus Christ and committing ourselves to live the Christian life. If you are seeking to nurture your child in the Christian faith and want to make the church a vital part of your family life, we encourage you to explore baptism. Baptism plans for your child begin by meeting with one of our pastors. You can contact us at (732) 223-4627 or email. To explore more about infant baptism you may view our “Guide to Baptism for Children.”
Christian Family Fellowship
Family Fellowship is a warm and welcoming group that meets during the 9:30 a.m. Sunday School hour. The studies include friendly and lively discussion that help to enhance spiritual life in the home. If you would like a member of the group to contact you, please email us and we would be happy to help pave the way to your warm welcome.
Marriage Support
We offer special events, classes and groups throughout the year. One of our popular groups is the Marriage Course, a seven-session course for couples helping you to explore ways to enhance your joy in marriage. Contact us at (732) 223-4627 or email for the latest information.
