About First Presbyterian Church of Rensselaer
Mission StatementWe are a Presbyterian church responding to new mission frontiers presented by our changing culture. Guided by our Lord Jesus Christ, we love, serve and embrace all people.
The church was chartered in 1847, and is one of the oldest in Indiana. The present sanctuary was erected in 1895. James Van Rensselaer, the founder of Rensselaer, originally gave land for the church and is buried in the churchyard. The sanctuary has a variety of lovely stained glass windows—some depicting scenes from the Bible, some Christian symbols, and four large geometric rose windows, many of which were crafted by a member of the church. The church has a long and distinguished history of community involvement.
The sanctuary has beautiful stained-glass windows, which were crafted by members of the church. Our church is fully accessible with a robust stair-climber system to the sanctuary, and an advanced live view camera that can be watched from an HD television on the first floor.
First Presbyterian is theologically progressive, and is a welcoming community for all.
