About Us

Who We Are

Vertical Divider
Chartered in 1931 as a new seaside church, we set forth anew mission statement in 2019: Caring, Sharing and Growing God's Love in our Communities. As a PC(USA) congregation, we welcome all, regardless of race, gender, sexuality, economics, or ability. Our worship features current expressions of our Reformed heritage. In 2020, we began drive-through communion & strengthened our social media presence and ministry partnerships in the community, focusing on both emergency relief and justice.

Our history...

Vertical Divider
Westminster Presbyterian Church was chartered on November 1, 1931 with the church building dedicated July 10, 1932.  A 1956 expansion of the sanctuary added transepts (side areas) which give the building the shape of a cross (cruciform) and in 2010 we expanded the narthex and added an elevator.
