Who we are

Westminster Church is a family; diverse in name and need; united in our conviction that Jesus Christ is Lord. In our sanctuary there is a communion table of unusual beauty to remind us that God accepts us wherever we are on our spiritual journey. Westminster Church is made up of people from Boardman, from the surrounding communities of Mahoning County, and from places beyond.

We are a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (USA), the largest, mainline Presbyterian denomination. This connects us to Reformed theology and history, describes our distinctive pattern of government, and extends the reach of our ministry by being part of a larger missional denomination.

What we believe

We believe the church is for people. People who think church isn’t for them. People who’ve been hurt by the church and stayed away. People who’ve gone to church all their lives. People who feel like they’re both a sinner and a saint.

We believe we are called to love God and to love one another.

We believe we are linked as brothers and sisters in the family of Christian faith.

We believe we are sent to get involved and to make a difference in the world.

What WE Value

We Seek God. Jesus says the most important thing we can do is LOVE God and receive God’s LOVE. We do this together each week in our Sunday worship services.

We Care for People. Our church welcomes and values all people. We are made up of individuals and families of all ages. Come as you are and find a place to LINK with others like you.

We Talk About Jesus Christ. We believe Jesus changes lives. A relationship with Jesus allows us to grow into the people we were created to be. During the week, we meet in various kinds of affinity groups to study the Bible, ask questions, exercise our bodies, grow in our Christian faith, care for each other in all stages of life, and form lasting friendships. Also, talking about Jesus Christ with our children & youth and teaching them about his love is one of our highest priorities.

We Respond by Making a Difference in the World. We gather for worship, and then we are SENT to serve. We want to be the hands and feet of Jesus wherever we are. We are a church that can be found serving God and others in places of need locally, regionally, and globally.
