All are welcome at
River Glen Presbyterian
As a progressive church with an inter-generational ministry focus and heart for service, River Glen is known for its warm, welcoming spirit and committed community. We believe that we "are all one in Christ Jesus" (Galatians 3:28) and intentionally create a safe place where people of all ages, abilities, ethnicities, gender identities, and sexual orientations can come to worship God, learn to follow Jesus and be guided by the Holy Spirit.
For many years, members of the LGBTQIA+ community have been welcomed into membership, held positions of leadership, and are full participants in the sacramental life of the church in which same-sex marriage ceremonies can be officiated, blessed, and celebrated. To confirm our position as a welcoming and affirming place, we belong to The Covenant Network of Presbyterians and More Light Presbyterians. Our congregation is also listed on gaychurch.org which celebrates diversity and finds unity in Christ.

Following the risen Christ, and seeking to make the Church a true community of hospitality, the mission of More Light Presbyterians is to work for the full participation of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual (LGBTQIA+) people in the life, ministry and witness of the Presbyterian Church (USA) and in society.
And, on Covenant Network of Presbyterians
The Covenant Network of Presbyterians is a broad-based, national group of clergy and lay leaders working for a church that is simultaneously faithful, just, and whole. The Covenant Network seeks to:
