Our Credo
For nearly two centuries, Witherspoon Presbyterian Church of Indianapolis, IN has been an oasis of hope for countless generations of faithful seekers in need of refuge and community.
As one of the oldest African American Presbyterian Churches in the nation, we are an open and affirming community of faith, steeped in the Black religious tradition, committed to social justice, and empowered by the Living Gospel of Jesus Christ to transform the world, one life at a time.
In the Spirit of John 3:16, we are a “Whosoever” community. Regardless of your age, race, faith journey, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, family makeup, social status, income, ability, or physical or mental health, we welcome you with the Unconditional Love of Jesus Christ.
Together, we are striving to become the kind of Church described in Acts 2:47, where there is relevant teaching, heart-felt worship, authentic relationships, fervent prayer, and compassionate care for those in need.
All who dare Believe, come, and sit at the Table of God alongside us as we light candles of hope, seek the lost, clothe the naked, offer refuge to the orphan, care for the widow, inspire the eager, and empower the hearts of all.
