Roswell Presbyterian Church

What Roswell Presbyterian Church does

Roswell Presbyterian Church is a non-profit religious organization and congregation of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), founded in 1839 in Roswell, Georgia. It operates a single main campus at 755 Mimosa Boulevard, comprising an 800-seat sanctuary built in 2000 and ancillary facilities including preschool, nursery, music rehearsal spaces, and meeting halls. The church delivers four Sunday worship services — Historic (8:15 a.m.), Traditional (9:30 a.m.), Modern (10:45 a.m.), and Digital (streaming at 9:30 and 10:45 a.m.) — supported by an extensive music ministry anchored by a Casavant Frères pipe organ (61 stops, 72 ranks, ~3,900 pipes, completed to original 1995 design in 2025) and multiple choirs and ensembles across age groups. Its product surface also includes Roswell Presbyterian Preschool (RPP, est. 1986) serving children 18 months to 4 years, the ryeX youth ministry, children's music programs, Stephen Ministry and prayer-based pastoral care, weddings/baptisms/funerals, and digital content (YouTube archive, "Closing the Distance" podcast). The church is staffed by approximately 40–50 employees and pastors.

The organization funds itself primarily through member tithes and offerings (collected in-service and via an AccessACS online giving platform), preschool tuition, fees from ancillary programs such as Music Arts Bunch ($30/month), and planned/legacy gifts through "The 1839 Society." Customer segments include General Congregation, Families with Children, Middle/High School Youth, Young Adults, Music Ministry participants, and Congregational Care recipients — served through a hybrid in-person/physical campus plus digital channel mix (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, podcast, weekly email). The church maintains mission partnerships with regional non-profits (The Drake House, Children's Development Academy) and community organizations (North Georgia Bagpipe Ensemble, Roswell Music Jam), with senior pastors serving on external boards, embedding the church in the broader Roswell/Atlanta civic fabric. Governance is by elected Session (elders) and Diaconate, consistent with PC(USA) congregational polity.
