First Presbyterian Church of New Haven

About this church

First Presbyterian Church of New Haven worships at 10:45 a.m. during the academic year in the sanctuary, with a live YouTube option and electronic bulletin sent through the weekly email. Summer worship moves to Miller Gathering Hall at 9:30 a.m. Families are invited to a program-year Household Huddle before worship for Scripture reflection and intergenerational learning, though current church pages differ on whether it begins at 9:30 or 9:45; confirm the week's email before attending. Children are welcome throughout the service and may use the nearby Copeland Room for a break. An equipped nursery offers a rocking chair, changing table, books, toys, and audio from worship, but parents supervise their own children because no nursery staff are currently provided.

Parking includes the front lawn from Whitney Avenue, the Worthington Hooker School lot across the street, and neighborhood streets. Drivers needing an accessible entrance should approach parking from Huntington Street. Fellowship takes place before or after worship, while small-group options include Bible studies, book groups, young adults, and Sunday-evening OASIS events for middle and high school students. The choir welcomes new singers and rehearses Wednesdays from 7 to 8:15 p.m. Community service includes meals, rides, errands, fundraising, and advocacy. The official guide does not state service duration, Communion frequency or eligibility, dress expectations, assistive-listening support, or the specific accessible doorway.
