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

Indoor Labyrinth

Our indoor labyrinth is made of canvas. We roll it out and lay it on the floor one day a month, usually on the first Monday, and the space is open to the public from 1:00 to 7:30 pm for walking, contemplation, prayer, and other quiet activities. Visitors to our outdoor labyrinth are welcome at any time. It’s in the pine grove adjacent to the upper parking lot, near the cross. Looking for more information? Contact the church office at…

Tuesday Morning Bible Study

This study group selects a book of the Bible, and then they read and discuss it a few verses or a chapter at a time. Space for silence is welcome, and there is no deadline to finish. Also, no prerequisites, and no homework! They meet most Tuesday mornings from 10:00 to 11:00am, in the BPC Library and on Zoom. All are welcome! For more information, contact Sherrie Brady via the church office (703-764-0456 or office@BurkePresChurch.org).

The Fix It Team

A dedicated group who bring their unique talents to help fix and problem solve plumbing, electrical, building (and more) solutions, every Tuesday. When they are done working they head to lunch for continued fellowship. They meet most Tuesday mornings at 10:00am as your schedule allows. All are welcome! For more information, contact BJ Postlewaite via the church office (703-764-0456 or office@BurkePresChurch.org).

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. For in the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and we were all made to drink of one Spirit. Indeed, the body does not consist of one member but of many.  If the foot would say, “Because I am not a hand,…

And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he…

Scripture We Know By Heart

Micah 6:6-8 “With what shall I come before the Lord and bow myself before God on high? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old?

Inclusion at BPC

As we the members of BPC, live into our motto of “Receive Love, Give Love, Repeat” you will notice that we are making some visible changes to signify that we are an inclusive and affirming church.
