Vision Statement

We, the Manhattan Presbyterian Church, are called by God to grow into a unique, Jesus-centered, and discipleship-focused community of witnesses in the world.  We are rooted and grounded in the truth and love of Jesus Christ, nourished by the Word of God, and sustained through prayer and the power of the Holy Spirit. Our desire is to love the Lord our God with all our heart, with all  our mind, with all our soul, and all our strength, and our neighbor as ourselves. In light of this call we hold the following vision for our unique expression of Christ’s mission:

We envision our church…

• … as a house of prayer, where every aspect of church life is nourished and guided by the profound, revitalizing power of prayer.
• … a place of deep connection, where transformational relationships are built with each other and with God.
• … as an equipping center, being empowered by the Holy Spirit, to do the works that Jesus did in the community He has planted us.
• … where disciples are transformed by the Holy Spirit, nurtured and strengthened through Scripture and fellowship, and grown into mature believers, bearing much fruit for the Kingdom of God.
• … changing the world through missions and outreach by bringing the Good News of Jesus Christ to Manhattan and beyond.
