First Presbyterian Church

I have been a member of First Presbyterian Church of Albany for more than twenty years. I love my church because it does not just preach about God's message of Love and hope, But takes steps to put this message into action. I love the fact that you do not feel judged, But loved, as one of God's children, who he loves equally. In todays world it is easy to get bogged down with negativity because of all the ways that man has abused God's love and creation. First Presbyterian Church of Albany challenges you instead to take steps in love, and through love to do something about it! It is a church that is not stagnant, but always evolving, fighting racism, hate and entrenched systems that do not allow for God's love of all his children to be actualized. My hope is that you may want to join us too?!

My wife and I were looking for a new church and were led to First Presbyterian Church.We have been going for a couple of months now and love the message and the warmth of the congregation. The Co-Pastors Glenn and Miriam Lawrence Leupold's sermons are full of compassion and love.

With a husband & wife as a loving partnership team for pastors, open and inclusive members of all ages, a magnificent choir, and awe inspiring stained glass to transport you... you will feel welcomed, comfortable, safe, and loved.

Very nice church. Enjoyed the service. Friendly congregation. Lovely building.

I loved the history of this historical building. We were visiting from out of town and the congregation made us feel so welcome. What a wonderful church family you have there.
