Thompson Memorial Presbyterian Church

About

Our hope in Christ is to invite, involve and inspire Christians old and new to love God and serve our community and each other.

Story

Thompson Memorial Presbyterian Church (TMPC) is located in beautiful Solebury, Bucks County, Pennsylvania near the Delaware River. Our members come from a number of surrounding towns such as New Hope, Newtown, Washington Crossing, Buckingham, Wrightstown, Doylestown, Yardley, Morrisville, and Lambertville and Ringoes, New Jersey.

We are blessed with a warm and active congregation of about 400 members who reflect the diversity of our community. We are small enough to be warm and personal. At the same time, we are large enough to support very active programs in music, Christian education, youth ministry, and mission and service. We are blessed with exceptional staff led by Rev. Stuart Spencer, who has been our pastor since 1995. Find out more about our programs and staff by visiting the various sections of this web site.

TMPC began in 1810 with 34 subscribers contributing $1,066 to form Solebury Presbyterian Church, which became a small but thriving congregation of local farmers and business owners. In 1875, following the Civil War, the sanctuary was rebuilt with a generous donation by William Neely Thompson in honor of one of the congregation's founders, Thomas M. Thompson, and the congregation became known as Thompson Memorial Presbyterian Church. TMPC is a member congregation of the Presbytery of Philadelphia, PC(USA). Find out more about our history in the history section of our site.

This is a very exciting time at TMPC, as our newly renovated and expanded Christian Education building and Fellowship Hall near completion. These buildings are a physical reminder of our ongoing commitment to devoting ourselves and our resources to God's work for us, through his Son, Jesus Christ. We hope you will join us and we get to know each other!
