No stranger to First Church, Dr. Carl Price served as a part of our pastoral staff in the sixties. During the last twenty five years of his ministry, before retirement in 1998, he served as Senior Pastor of First United Methodist Church of Midland, Michigan. Carl and Pat have a home in Midland, but spend part of their days in the apartment in our church, giving leadership to Disciple and Christian Believer classes and working with our Mission Ministry Team.

The Prices are interested in hiking and the great outdoors. They have led our membership to many of our National Parks during past summer seasons, and Carl's photographs of nature adorn many of the halls of our church!
