First Reformed Church Little Falls NJ - (973) 785-1260

Whether you are a visitor passing through, or you're looking for a church home, we hope this will inspire you to find Jesus Christ as your personal savior.

ABOUT US:
Every Sunday at 10:00 a.m. we gather for worship. The Lord’s Supper is celebrated on the first Sunday of each month and on Good Friday.
Each Sunday in the school year all of our children ages 3 to 11 experience worship in our Children in Worship Program. Children attend the 10:00 a.m. regular service and after a Children’s Sermon are dismissed to the Children’s Worship Center. This unique opportunity provides an environment for children to worship and experience God in their own way. They are told the stories of God and are given the opportunity to respond to his word in ways that are interesting and exciting for them. Their worship time together follows a similar structure to that of adult worship. The children greet each other and sing songs of praise as they get ready to hear God’s word. They hear the stories of God and respond to them; they do crafts and artwork related to the stories; they enjoy a feast time together and they leave with a song and a blessing. If you would like more information about this program, please speak to the Worship Center leaders.
