First Presbyterian Church — located in downtown Fayetteville —
welcomed the Rev. Jeff Shaver, a New Mexico native, as its new
associate pastor in September. Speaking about his experience, Jeff
beams with enthusiasm. "While I appreciate the rich history and
tradition of First Prez, at the end of the day, I'm here because of their
love for people." The vibrant community has made his transition
seamless. A young adult community is growing under his contribution.
Jeff carries with him a vision that blends the historic richness of the
church with a willingness to explore new horizons. He aims to help
further the reputation of First Presbyterian as a place of healing and
genuine welcome. "While First Presbyterian is rooted in history," Jeff
notes, "it's also open to experimenting with new things." His focus is on
adapting and innovating to meet the evolving needs of the community.
In a world where people may feel estranged from the church, Jeff
aims to help create a sanctuary of warmth and acceptance.
First Presbyterian aspires to be a haven for those who feel
disconnected or disillusioned by the conventional church experience.
Jeff envisions a vibrant and inclusive community where individuals
can find solace and spiritual nourishment.
