Faith Presbyterian Church of Austin
At Faith Presbyterian Church we are women and men of many walks of life, dedicated to an ever more inclusive and relevant Church.
We are a community that embraces inquiry. Our community of faith believes that God not only spoke in history among the communities and times of the Bible but that God is still speaking through those same stories and asking us to consider them anew using God’s gift of reason and Jesus’ model of compassion.
As one of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)’s 10,000 congregations nationwide, we share in the belief that the church has rightly sought reform and reconciliation over the years. We believe the church should hear the voices of those hurt by religion and a material society and seek its own further reform and reconciliation toward the likeness of Christ. Our members and pastor are actively involved in this rich tradition of over 200 years and its continuing call to relevance and renewal in our world.
In addition to our Presbyterian identity, we share a progressive outlook with others of faith inside the Presbyterian garden and beyond. We find value in the progressive values expressed in the Phoenix Affirmations, the More Light Presbyterian community and the Covenant Network of Presbyterians. We are proud to have been a leader as the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) has grown toward full inclusion of all persons regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity/expression.
Participation in our church is open to anyone. Those wishing to become a member of a Presbyterian church are asked to express faith in Jesus Christ. Pres
byterians also recognize trinitarian baptisms from any tradition and the communion table is open to all who trust in Christ.
It is our hope that this is a place where your spiritual orientation feels included and where you are encouraged to hear God speaking with new possibilities that may further enrich your life.
