First Presbyterian Church of Brooklyn


About Us

First Presbyterian Church of Brooklyn is an intentionally racially, culturally, and theologically diverse community energetically committed to serving God in our church, families, work-places, community and world.

As followers of Christ, individually and collectively, we manifest our faith by:

  • Acting as a beacon of love and hope to others;
  • Providing spiritual and emotional nurture in an environment of acceptance for all people;
  • Engaging as ambassadors and spiritual activists for peace and justice;
  • Addressing the temporal needs of individuals in our church, local community, and the world;
  • Shaping our children and youth to be compassionate citizens of the world;
  • Engaging in financial stewardship as part of our spiritual practice; and
  • Offering ourselves freely in individual and collective experience of worship.

First Presbyterian Church of Brooklyn is a member congregation of Presbyterian Welcome, which labors for a world where all persons might live into the calling that God has placed in their hearts, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity or expression.

We are located in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, at 124 Henry Street, near several subway lines and at the intersection of three great neighborhoods: DUMBO, Downtown Brooklyn, and Brooklyn Heights. We are also near several other great neighborhoods, such as Fort Greene, Cobble Hill, and Boerum Hill. People come from far and wide to be a part of this community.
