About First Presbyterian Church

First Presbyterian Church  is a historical church located in Stockton, CA, founded in 1850. Our beliefs are based on the Bible and centered on Jesus Christ. Our mission is very simple: to lead people to honor and glorify Jesus Christ. That means we’re not about a building or some complicated religious system, but about helping people from all backgrounds discover the joy that comes from knowing and serving Jesus Christ.  We also are led to respond to the needs of our neighbors, near and far.

We invite you to come and check us out this Sunday during  our worship service at 10:30am (Currently worship is online, but watch for the information about return to in-person worship.)  We know that going to a new church can be intimidating, so we try to do things in a way where you’ll feel welcome and not like an outsider. When you come, you can participate or just sit back and observe. You’ll discover a warm atmosphere, practical teaching from God's Word and lots of friendly people pursuing God together.

God made a promise in the Bible that if we seek after Him, we’ll find Him. You are a valued part of God’s creation and His deep desire is to be in a relationship with you. So come and join us as we pursue God together!

Family

At First Presbyterian Church  we value the family and we believe church should be a place for people of all ages. Every Sunday, during in-person worship, we provide child care alongside our regular services.

Leadership

First Presbyterian Church  is guided by a leadership team, called The Session, who provide overall direction and watch over the spiritual needs of the church. Our pastor provides sound, practical, biblical teaching at each worship service. They have received theological and pastoral training and are equipped to share God's love with our local community. First Presbyterian Church  is blessed to have a leadership team who are truly dedicated to Christ and accomplishing His will, through personal relationships and mission.
