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.
