First Presbyterian Church of Sarasota

About this church

First Presbyterian Church of Sarasota offers two clearly differentiated Sunday services: contemporary New Song worship at 9:00 a.m. in Fellowship Hall and traditional worship at 11:00 in the sanctuary. Children’s and adult Sunday School meet between them around 10:00, making it possible for a household to pair formation with either worship style. The church also provides online recordings and publishes separate bulletins for the contemporary and traditional gatherings.

The congregation describes itself as curious, inclusive, and diverse—people joined by hope in Jesus who seek God’s transforming love through worship, study, and service. Programs span children, youth, and adults, while local service opportunities turn the church’s welcome outward toward Sarasota neighbors. Older children may attend either service, with a special children’s moment included at the 9:00 gathering. Summer months can bring a consolidated 10:00 a.m. service, so travelers should check the worship page for the date-specific schedule before arriving.
