Receive Love. Give Love. Repeat.

All are welcome no matter where you are on your journey of faith.

Burke Presbyterian Church welcomes everyone – inclusive of age, race, ability, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity and stage of belief. This is not a watered down, one size fits all welcome. It is a commitment to the imagination, dignity, hospitality, healing, courage and community modeled by Jesus.

Ministries

Our church is alive with ministries for all ages. Check out our programs for children, youth, and adults for ways we worship, learn about our faith, make music together, and serve our neighbors. We hope you find Burke Presbyterian Church a place that feels like home.

Upcoming Events

Rainbow

What is Rainbow?  Rainbow is our “retreat in the middle of the week” for children in kindergarten through 6th grade and is a primary spiritual formation ministry for kids at BPC. We gather on Wednesdays during the school year from 5:30–7:00 pm for an evening of fellowship, faith, and food. The first hour of a Rainbow evening is filled with a rotation of activities — choir, Bible time, recreation, and creative arts — that help us worship God and learn…

Chancel Choir

Adults of all ages, abilities, and voice parts are invited to sing. No prior experience necessary, only a love of music and desire to learn. Rehearsals are held on Wednesday evenings. The Chancel Choir sings weekly in worship and presents a cantata during Advent.

AA Meeting

An Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) group meets at BPC on Thursdays from 7:00 to 8:00 pm. To access the meeting room, enter the building through a single side door, just around the corner from the main entrance.

The prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise them up, and anyone who has committed sins will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to one another and…

Untangling Tricky Theology: What Is Communion?

I Corinthians 12:12-30 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.

Indeed, the body does not consist of one member but of many.  If the foot would say, “Because I am not a hand,…

Inclusion at BPC
