First Presbyterian Church of Brazoria is a part of the Presbyterian Church (USA), the largest Presbyterian denomination in the country with approximately 1.9 million members (2015). More information on the organization and activities of the PC(USA) may be found on the PC(USA) website. The denomination contains about 180 different Presbyteries; we are a part of the Presbytery of New Covenant.  

Our church takes seriously its role in the Presbytery and in the PC(USA) as a whole. The Session oversees our participation in the ministry of these larger bodies and works to discern the positions God calls us to take when matters of controversy arise in the denomination.

We are also involved in a number of mission and renewal efforts within the PC(USA). Below is a partial list of efforts we support, along with other sites containing useful information for Presbyterians (First Presbyterian Church does not necessarily endorse views expressed on these external websites):

• The Presbyterian Coalition
• Theology Matters
