About this church
First Cumberland Presbyterian Church in Houston holds Sunday school at 10 a.m. and morning worship in the sanctuary at 11, with the service also streamed on YouTube. Latino worship is published for 2 p.m. Sunday, though the site's pages differ on whether it currently meets in the sanctuary or premieres online, so Spanish-speaking visitors should confirm the format before traveling. A special Sunday class, Learning English with the Bible, also begins at 10 and connects language learning with Scripture.
The congregation began January 21, 1945, when Houstonians interested in forming a Cumberland Presbyterian church met for the first time. A modest 20-by-40-foot worship building soon rose at Peckham Street and what became Avalon Place, where the church remains. A 2001 renovation emphasized community outreach and created a sanctuary with strong acoustics and a modern sound system that local musicians use as a performance venue. The neighborhood playground opens daily, and weekday ministries include evening ESL classes during the school year with childcare for children under ten, Bible study, and free daily devotionals. A first visit can pair 10 a.m. Sunday school with 11 a.m. worship; Latino guests should check that week's online listing.
