First Congregational Church of Detroit

The Mission of the Friends of First Living Museum is to provide transformational learning opportunities that result in positive change in the lives of the “young in age” and the “young at heart.” It does this by providing interactive, “hands on,” living experiences which result in more confident, competent, caring individuals with increased understanding and respect for all cultures, races, and religions.

General Goal
The Friends of First Living Museum will be an organization that is:

Visually stunning,
Smoothly running,
Deficit-free

Through which the face of God can clearly be seen.
