First Presbyterian Church

About this church

The First Presbyterian Church in Germantown gathers for worship at 10:00 a.m. on Sundays at 35 West Chelten Avenue in Philadelphia. Its mission is to reflect Christ’s loving presence by serving faithfully, worshiping joyfully, and sharing life in a diverse and generous community. That statement fits the church’s Germantown setting and gives visitors a clearer identity than the directory’s shorter “First Presbyterian Church” name alone.

A dedicated what-to-expect guide helps first-time guests prepare, while children, youth, and music ministries make room for participation across generations. The congregation treats diversity and generosity as practices expressed through community service, not simply welcome language. Prospective visitors can read the mission page and explore recent church life before arriving, then use Sunday worship as the natural entry point. Because special musical services and seasonal events can affect the ordinary pattern, verify the date on the church’s own calendar when planning around a holiday.
