Windermere Presbyterian Church seeks to reach our growing community with the life changing truth of God’s Word. We are committed to spiritual growth, faithful discipleship, and living out biblical teaching in our daily lives so that our ministry reflects the gospel we proclaim.

We are a biblically conservative, gospel centered, politically diverse congregation that values strong preaching, multiple opportunities for discipleship and community, and a mostly traditional style of worship. Our church family is warm, welcoming, and deeply connected, with members who are actively involved in ministry and eager to serve.

Congregant participation and support is central to our identity. In addition to Bible studies offered, the Hands 4 Christ Quilting provides quilts to Coastal Horizons, a Prayer Shawl Ministry to anyone in need, Family Promise, Meals on Wheels, Vigilant Hope, Mother Hubbard’s Cupboard, and our partnerships with local, university, and international missions, we seek to share Christ’s love with our neighbors and the world.

We are prayerfully seeking a pastor who shares this vision—someone who loves Scripture, leads with humility and warmth, and will join us in strengthening a church that is spiritually grounded, mission minded, and joyfully engaged in serving Christ.
