  • (With concern for our guest's health and ours, all Monday Community Dinners have been cancelled. Future dinners to be determined.  Check back.)
  • Update 3-17-20: It has been decided that First Presbyterian Church of Homewood will close the campus to all user groups, including but not limited to worship services, food service, outside support groups, committees, and Christian Education classes.

First Presbyterian Church of Homewood is a Christian community of faith in the Presbyterian Church (USA) denomination and we have been actively sharing the faith since 1858. First Presbyterian Church is a congregation of approximately 150 members bound together by our commitment to Jesus Christ.

We value worshiping together joyfully, wrestling with scripture faithfully, and reaching out to our local and global neighbors with compassion and hope.

Our congregation welcomes all people who trust in God's grace in Jesus Christ and want to become a part of the fellowship and ministry of his church. The gospel leads us to extend the fellowship of Christ to all people. If we do not do so, we would be rejecting Christ himself!

It is with joy that we greet you. We hope you will look over the many opportunities for mission and ministry at First Presbyterian Church of Homewood. You are welcome any time!

Grace and Peace,
Pastor Dudley Elvery

PS---Worship with us at 10:30 a.m. Sunday mornings.
Adult Bible study is from 9:30-10:20 a.m. year-round.

Our building is air conditioned in the summer and there is an elevator through the garden entrance off the back parking lot.
