We Are "The Church On The Park"
You've found our website. So why not come visit our church and worship with us? We are a warm and friendly congregation and all are welcomed. We are near the Long Island Expressway and Northern State Parkway on Roslyn Road. See Directions to Roslyn Presbyterian.
The Roslyn Presbyterian Church is located in historic Roslyn, NY, nestled in beautiful Roslyn Pond (Gerry) Park. The Church building includes the main sanctuary, social hall, kitchen, church offices, classrooms, and a large windowed meeting hall. The Church is handicapped accessible.
Our voluntary Church Choir, consisting of professional and non-professional singers, performs from the choir loft above the pulpit. Sunday School runs concurrent with church services although, at present, we have very few children. We have a relatively small but loving and vibrant congregation.
Roslyn is located on the North Shore of Long Island about 20 miles from New York City. We draw members and friends from the surrounding communities. The communities are affluent with many managerial and professional residents. The manse is located in the very highly regarded Roslyn school district. Our Church is comprised primarily of older members who are active and committed to the Church. One of our goals is to attract younger families and build the Church.
The minister oversees and conducts Church services on Sunday morning from 10 to 11 a.m. Our Church service is followed by a coffee/fellowship time. The Church is governed by a nine member Session with committees and groups including: Fiscal Management/Property, Worship and Music, Christian Education, Nurture, Stewardship, Growth, Local Causes, Personnel, Nominating, and the Women's Association. Members volunteer to serve in official positions including the Clerk of Session, Treasurer, Financial Secretary, Commissioner to Presbytery, and Flower Chairperson. The Ministry of Music Director, Church Secretary, and Sexton are paid positions. The Church also pays for custodial services.
The Church hosts a number of organizations including Al-Anon, Alcoholics Anonymous, Growing Tree Nursery School, and the Kalam (Taiwanese/Lutheran) Church which holds services on Sunday afternoon. Church activities include: Easter Hat Contest, Christmas Pageant, collecting Christmas gifts for disadvantaged children, June Church picnic, collection of donations for the Long Island Council of Churches' Food Pantry and other missions, joint Thanksgiving dinner with the Kalam church, welcome back picnic in September, Mystery night show and dinner, mini-golf outing, and Christmas dinner. The Church also manages the Roslyn cemetery.
Through the sermons and Church activities our goal is to communicate to people in the surrounding communities the importance of Christian faith to the pursuit of successful personal, professional and business lives. To meet the needs of a broad membership our services and the music have both contemporary and traditional aspects. We seek a minister who will actively and spiritually support our belief that God has placed us here in the company of each other and at this particular time, to serve God and to acknowledge Christ as the Son of God and our Savior.
Currently, we are searching for a new interim or designated pastor (one-year renewable appointment) with a possible pathway to a permanent pastor. For more information and a description of the position please click on our
