Partners & Outreach

It’s who we are.

Partners & Outreach

At Westminster Presbyterian Church, mission is not just something we do, it’s who we are and whom we are called to be. Responding to God’s call to love one another, WPC partners with local organizations and supports various initiatives to support our community’s well-being. Whether through hands-on service, generosity, or shared collaboration, there’s a place for everyone (all ages) to get involved by serving, celebrating, and growing together.
