Who we are
We are a PC(USA) congregation in the heart of our community — a mainline Presbyterian church rooted in the Reformed tradition, opened to the questions of the present, and committed to the slow work of formation across generations.
Our congregation includes lifelong Presbyterians, recovering evangelicals, returning Catholics, curious skeptics, and a steady stream of neighbors who walk in for the first time and find a chair waiting. There is no “right way” to be here. There is only the welcome, the table, and the long conversation we are having about what it means to follow Jesus together.
What we believe
We confess the historic Christian faith as it is summarized in the Apostles’ and Nicene Creeds. We interpret Scripture seriously and conversationally. We baptize infants and adults. We celebrate the Lord’s Supper monthly, open to all who hunger.
We are guided by the PC(USA) Book of Confessions, governed by elected elders, and shepherded by a pastor called by the congregation. We believe the gospel is a gift — not a transaction — and that the church exists to bear witness to that gift in the neighborhood we have been given.
How we worship
Sunday worship at 10 AM follows a traditional Reformed pattern: gathering, Word, response, sending. We sing both classic hymns and contemporary songs. The sermon is the heart of the service, usually 18–22 minutes, scripturally grounded, applied to ordinary life. Communion the first Sunday of every month.
Children are welcome in worship from start to finish. Around the time of the Children’s Message, kids K–6 may step out for age-appropriate Bible exploration and return for the closing hymn.
Why we exist
“You can’t practice God’s love alone — that’s why we do it together.” It is the line our pastor returns to most often. Faith, the Reformed tradition has always insisted, is not a private possession. It is a common life. We are here because we believe a small church taking its neighborhood seriously is one of the most important things a community can have.
