Our Vision

God meets our deepest needs and equips us to reach out and be a sign and foretaste of God’s Kingdom, through Spiritual Growth, Mission & Service, and Ministry with Youth & Families. 

Putting our Vision into Practice

Spiritual Growth - Our Christian education classes on Sundays and at other times enable people of all ages to grow in understanding the Bible, Christian discipleship, and how our faith relates to daily life.

• To engage adults in the church and community as they wrestle with current issues and live Christian faith in the 21st century, we offer Bible studies, adult forums, retreats, and classes.

• To help all generations hear the good news of Christ, we use current technologies, including social media, to connect with one another and with those outside the church.

Mission and Service - Seeing homelessness, hunger, brokenness, violence, and suffering in the world, we are called to serve. We work with community partners to live into the Kingdom of God and bring about change.

• We are a founding congregation of Family Promise; most members of our congregation are involved in serving homeless families, who spend four weeks a year with us. Other congregations and community members support us in this work.

• Throughout the year, we actively participate in a variety of mission projects especially those related to homelessness and hunger to serve our neighbors in our area as well as around the world. See list of recent projects below. *

• Our pastor and several members serve at higher levels of our denomination (Presbyterian Church USA) and we are part of the interfaith Scotch Plains Fanwood Ministerium.
