The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) has approximately 2.4 million members, 11,100 congregations and 14,000 ordained and active ministers.

To learn and share our faith, The Presbyterian Church in Needham, MA gives priority to a Christian Education program for children and adults, and aspires to make it a central activity in our church. We share God’s gifts to help meet others’ needs by encouraging members to be actively connected with ecumenical mission programs involving local needs, hosting mission projects to which we could invite non-members to participate, and supporting national mission projects financially and with prayer throughout the year. In our community, we are committed to becoming known as a place where people can find the peace of Christ through worship, meditation (especially through the prayer labyrinth), and fellowship.
