Ankeny Presbyterian Church

About this church

Ankeny Presbyterian Church worships Sunday at 9:30 a.m. at 317 Southeast Trilein Drive, with a simultaneous Facebook livestream and recordings available later on YouTube. The service blends modern and traditional elements in a casual setting. A Bible reading and progressive, inclusive sermon connect Scripture to daily life, often with humor. Hymns and worship songs are accompanied by piano or organ rather than a band, sometimes using MIDI arrangements; the adult choir usually sings during the school year. Worship concludes with the Lord's Prayer and a blessing. Fellowship begins at 10:30, followed by Christian education at 10:45.

The church identifies as open, affirming, progressive, and mission-focused, welcoming people regardless of age, gender, race, or orientation. Its vision is that everyone experience God's love, and its mission emphasizes sharing that love through compassion and service in Ankeny and beyond. Family ministry creates space for children, youth, and adults to explore faith together, form relationships, and serve. Adult groups, wellness programs, online learning, and community connections extend participation beyond Sunday morning. Mission partners organize opportunities at community, national, and global levels. Visitors seeking a PCUSA congregation will find a recognizably Presbyterian service—Scripture, sermon, hymns, prayer, choir, and blessing—expressed through an explicitly progressive welcome and a direct worship-to-fellowship-to-education sequence.
