OUR MISSION: First Presbyterian Church of Allentown is a diverse body of faith, living God’s love in the way of Jesus Christ. We do this through worship, study, service and relationships for the common good of our community and the world.
Being a diverse body of faith means that we have a diverse expression of worship in 3 different languages (English, Arabic, and Chin Burmese) and at 6 different times on Sunday mornings. All are welcome to participate in the worship life of FPCA in whichever way you feel you most authentically connect with! Click on the “Worship” page to learn more about the worship life of FPCA!
We grow and learn through study, whether you participate in a Sunday morning faith formation opportunity, or if you’re joining with others in bible study on a weekday, or even if you’re more drawn to seasonal small group studies offered in this community.

Service is an important part of the community that is First Presbyterian Church of Allentown. Our mission teams are active in Allentown, throughout the Lehigh Valley and across the globe. We serve as teachers, leaders, readers, musicians, greeters, and more within the context of our own community. We hope that you’ll find an opportunity to connect and serve in this community and beyond. Click on the “Serve” page to learn more!
Relationships are vital in any healthy body of people, and we are committed to building those relationships together for God’s glory and to proclaim the message of Christ to the nations together. All of the ministries at FPCA are built around relationships, and we encourage you to seek out where you might connect with others by visiting, sending an email, indicating your interest on a connection card, or making a phone call. We want to “do life” with you! If you’re interested to learn more about our caring ministries, please click on the “Care” page to find out more!
