First Presbyterian Church of Tequesta

Story

We are a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (USA). God comes to us in free and undeserved favor in the person of Jesus Christ who lived, died, and rose for us that we might belong to God and serve Christ in the world. Following Jesus, Presbyterians are engaged in the world and in seeking thoughtful solutions to the challenges of our time.

Presbyterians affirm that God comes to us with grace and love in 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.

"When the First Presbyterian Church began in 1960, our goal was to know and serve the Lord through a mid-sized, family-based congregation. That's what you'll find today: a family of believers and seekers, warm and caring, active and social, diverse in both age and outlook.

Yet, many things have changed since we began in a rented recreation hall. We're proud of our many facilities and programs for our church family."
