What community groups does the church support?
Our doors are open to local groups serving our community. Some of these groups include the Pittsburgh Chinese Academy, Southwestern Pennsylvania Guild of Spinners and Weavers, and alcohol rehabilitation groups. As our area has changed from a rural farming community into the suburbs for the Greater Pittsburgh area, so has Center Presbyterian Church grown and evolved to meet the spiritual, social, and recreational needs of the community.
What is the history of Center Presbyterian Church?
Center Presbyterian Church was founded in 1828, when the Presbytery of Ohio granted permission to form a church that would be equidistant from the then existing parishes of Bethany, Bethel, Chartiers, and Mingo.
In 1852, the church moved into a new brick meeting house. In 1955, the educational wing was added and the sanctuary was enlarged to meet the needs of the growing congregation.
In 2010, the sanctuary and narthex were renovated, a new prayer chapel was added, and additions were built for fellowship and community outreach.
Twenty-six ministers have directed the work of the church and its congregations for nearly 200 years.
