We find more truth in questions than in answers.

Sausalito Presbyterian Church provides a nourishing environment for the spiritual growth of ALL beings to serve and support others. We encourage open-minded exploration to understand, embrace, and celebrate the grace of God.

Our congregation values inclusion across faith experiences, sexual orientations, gender expressions, and cultural backgrounds, and welcomes atheists and agnostics.

MAUNDY THURSDAY
March 28 at 6:30 PM
Gathered to remember Passover, on this night Jesus deepens his relationship with his followers in many dramatic ways – he washes their feet; he offers himself completely in the symbols of wine and bread; he says he no longer thinks of them as his disciples, but as his friends; and he gives them a new commandment, to love one another as he loves us.

This gathering is often called an agape meal; agape is the Greek word for a kind of deep, caring love – the kind of love Jesus called us to share with each other, with everyone.

This is a special night that will touch your heart, your soul, and your mind. Seating is limited. To RSVP with Eventbrite, CLICK HERE. Deadline for registering is Monday, March 25 at 12:00 PM.

We are a progressive congregation, welcome

I lived most of my life in NYC where I worked in the film industry, briefly in corporate banking, and then in mediation and conflict resolution – all before attending Union Theological Seminary in NYC and being called to this church in 2011. I felt called to ministry as a teenager, but being gay meant I could not minister in almost any church. The journey to finally being fully welcomed to the table – for LGBTQia people and for the Presbyterian Church – was long and circuitous and joyful and challenging.

What can I say about a church that welcomes an openly Gay man and his Jewish partner, their teenager, and the two cats and Chocolate Lab that we call family?

I love serving this church because I know none other that practices All Are Welcome like it is done here. Whoever you are, wherever you are on life’s journey, whatever you believe or don’t believe, we would love to welcome you!

Pastor Paul Mowry

We embrace all forms and genres of music from traditional and contemporary sacred music forms through popular, folk, gospel, theatrical, film and even newer forms of musical expression.

We take pride in incorporating music of today’s leading composers, especially including local, bay area masters.

Music Ministry

SPC’s Session is currently composed of 11 individuals who meet monthly to discuss issues within the Church and the community and to make decisions about how the Church will function.

Paul leads each meeting in partnership with Ralph Hooper, the Clerk of Session. The Session oversees a wide range of areas in the Church—finances, Church property, committee activities, etc.

Our Elders

The Ministry of Deacon is set forth in Scripture as one of compassion, witness, and service, sharing in the redeeming love of Jesus Christ for the poor, the hungry, the sick, the lost, the friendless, the oppressed, those burdened by unjust policies or structures, or anyone in distress.

Persons of spiritual character, honest repute, exemplary lives, brotherly and sisterly love, sincere compassion, and sound judgment should be chosen for this ministry.

The Deacons

Missions we support

  • Bridge the Gap

    Founded in 1995, Bridge the Gap began as a 100% volunteer grassroots effort by people who wanted to make a positive impact in the lives of children living in Marin City by tutoring one-on-one.

    With the help of funding from Sausalito Presbyterian Church, the Marin Community Foundation, and various local organizations, the program gradually expanded and is now the shining light of our Mission work, as well as one of the premier youth tutoring programs in the country.

  • Leon Mission Partners

    Initiated by our church in 1994 to help street children and indigenous families of Leon, Mexico, our members provide money and supplies, building small apartments, a chapel, and a small schoolroom, and providing bedding, clothing, and educational toys.

    Over the years, many trips have been made by volunteers, both youth and adults, to carry down all the donated supplies, help build the simple housing for indigenous families, provide medical services, and paint and fix up several facilities that house the street children.

  • Children’s AIDS Art Programme

    Mary Miyata, founder of the Children’s Aids Art Programme (CAAP), left California in 2002 to follow her dream to Africa, where she has made a marked difference to the plight of countless AIDS infected/affected and abused orphans over the past five years.
