First Presbyterian Church Of Birmingham

About this church

First Presbyterian Church of Birmingham worships at 11:00 a.m. Sundays in the heart of the city, with Facebook and YouTube livestreams for remote participation. This Presbyterian Church (USA) congregation identifies itself as Christ-centered, justice-oriented, and inclusive. Its shared faith statement welcomes people across differences of origin, skin color, income, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability, and religious background.

Children are treated as central to congregational life—the church calls itself the “church with the children in the middle”—with faith formation, youth programs, choirs, and service opportunities designed to include them. Adults, fellowship events, ministry teams, mission partners, music, weddings, and the church's carillon widen its public role in downtown Birmingham. Worship and service are presented as mutually reinforcing: worship lifts the spirit, while serving changes lives. First-time visitors can attend in person at Fourth Avenue North or preview the gathering online. Families should consult the current children-and-youth calendar because formation activities may not occur during every 11:00 service.
