A LITTLE MORE ABOUT US AND OUR CONGREGATIONAL FOCUS
PRESBYTERY OF THE NORTHERN PLAINS
...
The United Presbyterian Church of Jamestown is geographically very close to the confluence of two rivers - to be precise, the Pipestem Creek and the James River. The two different bodies of water become one river. Similarly, different people with different gifts and backgrounds come together to worship and minster in the name of One - Jesus Christ. Our mission is Sharing Christ’s Love Through Service.
We service the Presbytery of the Northern Plains by being a centrally located meeting place for committees and councils. Out youth leader, Jerome, works with the Presbytery's Youth Connection for combined retreats. Pastor Bob serves on the Congregational Vitality Pod.
The University of Jamestown is located close by the church. The United Presbyterian Church has a long history of supporting the University. A number of current professors and students of UJ are members of our church. We also have members of our choir, ably directed by David Morlock, associated with UJ.
Our current staff includes Pastor Bob Boyar, Jerome Zamgba - Christian Education Coordinator/Youth Leader, David Morlock - Organist/ Choir Director, Robin Barnes - Administrative Assistant and Mae Pickett - Church Bookkeeper.
