First Church is an open and affirming congregation. As such, we open our doors to community for meetings, dances, wedding receptions, theatre company rehearsals, and music groups— provided the event or group does not oppose the basic tenants of the church's constitution. You should also be aware that First Church is a non-smoking environment.
To check available dates and arrange for facility rental, please contact our business manager by email or phone.
We have several small meeting rooms that can accommodate 30 to 50 people as well as a large Parish Hall with a stage. We can also provide items such as microphones, overhead projectors, flip charts and coffee pots, given you make advanced arrangements with the office manager.
Facility charges are as follows:
- $30 per use for small meeting rooms
- $125 per use for the Parish Hall, for groups of 50 people or less*
- $250 per use for the Parish Hall, for groups of 50 to 100*
- $400 per use for the
Parish Hall for 100-300 people*
* If setup is required, a $50 setup fee will be added to the rental of the parish hall. A charge of $150 will be added to the fee if you use any of the following: dishwasher, dishes and utensils, stove or oven.
Requests for security require an additional charge to cover the cost of security personnel. If you need security, please ask the business manager for current rates.
Due to the high cost of building maintenance, we must charge non-members and members alike for all facility usage, unless the rooms are used for the direct support of one of our missions. Please consult our business manager if you are unsure whether or not your meeting qualifies. Facility rentals must be paid in full by cash, money order, cashier’s check or personal checks before the event occurs. Checks that are returned for non-sufficient funds are subject to bank charges.
