Tulsa's First Church

First Presbyterian Church of Tulsa, founded in 1885, is the very first organized Church in the city and is known today as "First Church." The history of the Church is rich, and its roots are deep, but our story is also alive and evolving — We’re here to worship God, grow together, and serve our larger community in Tulsa and around the world.
