Shares a ministry location with First United Methodist Church.

First Presbyterian Church is part of the Presbyterian family of churches in The American Church Story. 884 congregations of the Presbyterian family gather across Pennsylvania — 11,639 across the United States on The Church Map.

Presbyterians gave American Christianity much of its backbone: seminaries, catechisms, and shared government by elders rather than by one man, a habit that shaped the country's civic life as much as its churches. They have been among the most persistent builders of colleges, hospitals, and mission agencies this nation has.
