Fellowship

Recreation

Fellowship through recreation is an important part of the First Presbyterian lifestyle. Whether you enjoy attending Mississippi State athletic and cultural events, exercising at a local health center, or attending community theater productions, chances are you’ll find other FPC members there as well. Here are just a few of the recreational opportunities FPC offers.

• Bowling League

First Presbyterian routinely sponsors a team in the local Church Bowling League, where the competition is fun and friendly. League nights vary from season to season. Bulldog Lanes, a top-notch facility on Highway 12 hosts this league. Please contact Jamie Jones (435-7788) for details.

• Mens Softball

Summertime means softball in the Mens Church League hosted by Starkville Parks & Recreation. FPC sponsors a team in the slow-pitch division, with games played once or twice weekly during the season. The team is open to all members 18 and older. Contact Jamie Jones (435-7788) for information.

• Adult Exercise

Low-impact stretching and exercise are the main ingredients for Adult Exercise, a ministry offered through FPC for senior adults. The class meets Monday and Wednesday in the fellowship hall at the church from 8:30 to 9:30 AM. Please contact Martha Wells (323-3095) for information on this program.

• Fishing Rodeo

The beautiful setting of Robinson Lake just off Old West Point Road is home to the annual children’s fishing rodeo. Each summer young anglers are partnered with some of FPC’s “old pros” for a day of fun at the lake. Prizes are awarded in several categories and everyone is invited. Contact Cameron Beaty (323-1994) for dates and times.
