About Us

The congregation that would become Southminster Presbyterian Church was organized with 183 founding members on April 26, 1925 in the heart of the rapidly growing community of Mt. Lebanon, Pennsylvania.  Our newly constructed building housed worship for our community of faith for the first time on December 23, 1928 and our building was dedicated during a worship service on January 6, 1929.  In the nearly 100 years since our congregation’s founding, we have grown alongside our community in joy, hope and transformation of life in and through Jesus Christ.

Mission Statement

Southminster Presbyterian Church, empowered by the Holy Spirit, seeks to glorify God by leading others to Jesus Christ; extending and nurturing our community of faith spiritually, physically, intellectually, and emotionally and reaching out to the world with love and support.

Vision Statement

We are, and we are seeking to become, more fully and faithfully an inviting church, inclusive in its welcome; centered on God; obedient to Christ through the Scripture; nurtured, disciplined, and equipped for ministry and mission in relational groups; gathered in worship, scattered in service and witness; sharing ministry and mission that is transforming our lives, our relationships, our community, our city, our nation, and the world for all eternity.
