Receive Love. Give Love. Repeat.

All are welcome no matter where you are on your journey of faith.

Burke Presbyterian Church welcomes everyone – inclusive of age, race, ability, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity and stage of belief. This is not a watered down, one size fits all welcome. It is a commitment to the imagination, dignity, hospitality, healing, courage and community modeled by Jesus.

Ministries

Our church is alive with ministries for all ages. Check out our programs for children, youth, and adults for ways we worship, learn about our faith, make music together, and serve our neighbors. We hope you find Burke Presbyterian Church a place that feels like home.
