Sermon Title: "Tabitha, called Dorcas" 
Sermon Date: 5-11-2025

Pastor Tracy Ebarb delivered a sermon entitled "Tabitha, called Dorcas".  My name is Tabitha, they call me Dorcas.  I was a merchants daughter and a disciple of the Messiah, a servant of widows and now a witness to resurrection.  I was once dead, now alive.  This is my story.

Clothing Body and Soul

Mission Statement

First Presbyterian Church Plano is The Clothing Church in the heart of east Plano, Texas.  Following Christ's call in mission, we cover our community and world in God's love.

Vision Statement

FPC believes that God runs a "clothes line" of giving and sharing through it, linking all who have need to cover their bodies, which is everyone.  This happens by....
o  Clothing our community through donations given by the community itself.
o  Stitching together humanity's beautiful diversity by embracing all.
o  Mending injustice with humility and action.
o  Daily donning the mantle of Christ's greatest command to love God and love our neighbor as ourselves.

Our clothing ministry is 50+ years old and now it has partnered with “Streetside Showers” and lately  “POWS” (Plano Overnight Warming Station),   serving our homeless community.
