First Presbyterian, Sacaton
Our Mission:
We consider ourselves parish ministry congregations composed of the Upper
Santan, Lower Santan, Sacaton Flats and the Sacaton church. We serve the
communities where we're located. Sacaton Flats is about four miles east of
Sacaton and Upper/Lower Santan is three to six miles north of Sacaton.
We
have a lay pastor rotation system for the most part that covers Upper and Lower
Santan chapels and one that works the Sacaton and Sacaton Flats area.
Our
Ministry touches the local adult detention center along with the youth. Several
of the people have been attending church since their release. We also have a
time of devotions one Sunday a month at the hospital for the patients. The other
chapels have their turn as well. We thank God for His goodness and His mercy
which endures forever. The Sacaton church and its neighboring chapels have been
here since the latter part of the 1800s. When Dr. C.H. Cook came to Sacaton in
December 23, 1870, he labored twelve years before his first convert. Nineteen
years later he organized the First Presbyterian Church of Sacaton in April 3,
1889. Again, we thank God for His goodness and His mercy which endures
forever!
