Immanuel Presbyterian Church is a welcoming community of Christians who care about each other and find joy in worship and service to others. We are called by the Holy Spirit to demonstrate God's love to all people. We strive to be faithful servants by opening our doors to any who wish to enter and know Christ's love, using music from our own backyard and from around the world to glorify and praise God, reading the Word and preaching, using inclusive language and encouraging the children of our church to participate in worship. As Christs' disciples, it is our mission to provide support for one another through spiritual sustenance, opportunities for questioning and learning, time for fellowship and conversation, and to seek new ways to serve out community.
