MISSION – First Presbyterian Church of Poughkeepsie

The First Presbyterian Church of Poughkeepsie is a covenant community that seeks to worship God through Scripture, Sacraments, music, thanksgiving, praise and service. We believe that Christ’s example of teaching, healing, serving and forgiving is the foundation of our faith and our model for action. Through faith, nurture and education we work for justice, to promote love and compassion, to minister to our own congregation, to the surrounding neighborhood and beyond.
