In anticipation of a positive outcome towards marriage equality by the Supreme Court this month, the Southern Decadence organization is hosting New Orleans's first wedding show for the LGBTQ community.  First Presbyterian will be attending and showcasing our beautiful sanctary and fellowship hall to prospective brides and grooms.  

At First Presbyterian we are up to our ears with weddings, anniversaries, and bridal shows. It's wedding season and we can't be happier for our couples, friends, and families.  We can accommodate all kinds of weddings, from NFL players and society types to hipsters and flower children.  Our sanctuary has a truly magical vibe and can be grand and intimate at the same time.  We welcome all couples.

Have you ever noticed the OTHER church on the other corner of S. Claiborne Ave and Jefferson Ave?  We have a very interesting shared history!  Both congregations can trace our roots to the same man, Rev. Dr. Theodore Clapp in the early 1800s.  Both churches occupied different locations and have ended up katty corner from each other in Broadmoor.  Fast forward to 2015: hosting a joint crawfish boil to raise money for UNITY of Greater New Orleans.

Thank you to everyone who supported us yesterday on ‪#‎GiveNOLADay‬! Because of our members, longtime friends and some new supporters, First Presbyterian received 13 gifts totaling $1,000!

Your support is a blessing and we will use it wisely.  We would like to invite you to worship on Sunday mornings at 11am. The atmosphere is somewhat traditional, and also casual and welcoming!

We have started a recycling fundraiser! There’s nothing to buy (isn't that awesome!). We are simply asking you to protect the environment by donating your used consumer electronics and unwanted, broken or mismatched jewelry. 

Your used item(s) may be tax deductible and will be recycled in accordance with EPA regulations. 100% of the proceeds will help fund First Presbyterian.
