About 

Screen Shot 2017-03-01 at 4.02.05 PM.png
  "A Church without Walls
that Welcomes without Limits." 

We say this a lot, but we really mean it. First & Central is proudly progressive, and absolutely welcoming, with a mix of people of all types in leadership roles in the church.

​

As a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (USA), the nation's largest presbyterian denomination, we are pastored by a Minister of the Word and Sacrament, governed by a Session of elected Elders, and cared for by a Board of elected Deacons.

​

You'll find us on Rodney Square, standing proudly in the heart of downtown Wilmington, Delaware. (Alas, this is not the corner of First and Central streets, as neither street exists in Wilmington!) For more information, visit the History and Mission pages, or see links below.

Staff

Our talented staff serve our church with joy and love as they   "seek the welfare of the city."  Jeremiah 29:7
