First Alliance Church

First Alliance Church At First Alliance church, we are committed to helping people rediscover and connect with God. We're also working to be more prayerful in everything we do.

We have been members of the Christian & Missionary Alliance for more than 80 years. First Alliance seeks to be a loving, grace-filled, community that follows Jesus. This year we're focusing on building a deeper sense of community and fellowship. This summer's unifying faith project is taking us into the neighborhoods around our church to feed kids that are hungry. We believe God's calling us to st

ep up and into this initiative. Each week we meet for music, prayer, reflection and to look at a section of the Bible. We pray for each other through the week and look forward to being together. First Alliance is a great place to be!

Come learn ballroom dance and more! No skills necessary. Couples needed; singles also welcome. Meet in the Education Building of First Alliance Church (4400 Buffaloe Road) on Thursday September 24th from 6:30 - 8:00 pm for an informal session of fun led by John and Connie Murphy, experienced dance instructors who have volunteered their time for anyone who wants to learn. This is the second year the Murphy's have shared their expertise, and last year was lots of fun!
Connie says, "I started taking ballroom dance classes when I was 12 years old, and I taught several classes for Johnson County Parks & Rec in the late 80's, but continuously since 2002. So, for over 20 years! "
