Touching the Heart of God and the Hearts of People in the Heart of Merchantville
WELCOME TO FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
MERCHANTVILLE NJ!
Because of the COVID-19 situation,
there will be no worship services or
other in-person events until further notice.
See below for how
we can still worship together.
Current Update
Your Session is excited to announce that
the Rev. Laura Donovan
has accepted the position
as our Transitional Pastor.
Her first day will be July 19, 2020. Rev. Donovan has been ordained for 23 years and is from Yardley, PA. We are excited to welcome her to our church home.
In the meantime, anyone needing Pastoral Care can call elder Gary Peze or Deacon President Gloria Hermanns. They will see that an Elder or Deacon follows up during this time.

We will use
this space on the website to continue providing updates on
the search for a new pastor.
Still Worshiping Together
Since we will not be able to meet together, we have created a worship guide that will be updated regularly as we move forward.
We urge you to use the guide, ideally at 10am on Sunday mornings, so that even though we can't worship together physically, we can still worship together from a distance
in Spirit and in Truth.
