Our Story

We are a multi-generational congregation offering worship, education and events which include and encourage the participation of gifts of all.  Children are welcome and integrated into the worship life of the congregation and adults are given opportunities to learn together or serve cross-generationally.  We care for folks within our congregation and extend those gifts to the community and the region.  We take God’s love for us seriously and claim Jesus’ promises of wholeness and life which inspire us to bring God’s love and hope to the world around us.

Come and experience the joy and warmth of our congregation and the love of God as we worship and grow together.

About the​ Presbyterian
Church

Presbyterians affirm that God comes to us with grace and love through the person of Jesus Christ, who lived, died, and rose for us so that we might have eternal and abundant life in Him. As Christ’s disciples, called to ministry in His name, we seek to continue His mission of teaching the truth, feeding the hungry, healing the broken, and welcoming strangers. God sends the Holy Spirit to dwell within us, giving us the energy, intelligence, imagination, and love to be Christ’s faithful disciples in the world.

More than two million people call the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) their spiritual home. Worshiping in 10,000 Presbyterian congregations throughout the United States, they engage the communities in which they live and serve with God’s love.
