Sunday Services Currently Streaming

On Sunday, April 5, the First Jefferson Board of Trustees, in an emergency session, voted to continue suspension of all in-person services at the church, through the end of April. We will continue to have a service, live-streamed on our Facebook page at the regular church hour of 11:00 am. A small dedicated volunteer crew along with our valiant minister and pianist make this happen.

Our bookkeepers, however, will not stop paying our bills. Continue to send your pledge checks addressed to FJ Finance, 1959 Sandy Ln, Fort Worth 76112. Payments can also be made via the "Give to First Jefferson’s Ministries" link under "Donate" on this page. And if you haven’t sent in your pledge card for next year, do it now while you’re thinking about it. Continue to keep in touch by phone and emails. Continue to keep in touch by phone and emails. And take care of yourselves.
