Easter / Resurrection Sunday at Westminster 2025

Do you sense God calling you to partner with Westminster to address the following systemic issues challenging the City of Trenton and supporting our international sisters and brothers by:

**Grateful for the over 1,000 backpacks and 1,000s of School Supplies donated by Nassau Presbyterian Church since 2018!**

1) Supporting Trenton’s low-income families by annually providing 100s of backpacks and school supplies in partnership with Nassau Church.

2) Dismantling mass incarceration by serving on the Mass Incarceration Taskforce: a partnership of three Presbyterian churches: Nassau, Witherspoon and Westminster.

**Bethany House of Hospitality Residents 2024-2025**

3) Ministering to formerly incarcerated / returning citizens and their families through Trenton Microloan Collaborative in Partnership with Nassau Presbyterian Church.

4) Bethany House of Hospitality, a young adult intentional living community in Trenton, has reached out to young adults for the last 14 years. Many residents felt disenfranchised by the traditional church, yet felt called to serve the Greater Trenton Area. At the culmination of BHOH’s missional ministry this year, a total of more than 35 residents have served in Trenton and beyond. Four residents were ordained as Ministers of the Word and Sacrament.

5) a) Assisting immigrants to acquire English proficiency to support the education of their children and to secure gainful employment by partnering with the Latin American Legal Defense and Education Fund,

b) Providing dedicated and shared space for Interfaith Refugee Immigrant Services and Empowerment (I-RISE)

d) Partnering with Pastora Nancy Rivera of First Presbyterian Church of Trenton, to serve women via Aboga por Su Causa / Advocate for their Cause.

6) Welcoming members of the LGBTQIA+ community to join Westminster’s congregation and leadership.

7) Providing a site for meals & food distributions in partnership with Mercer Street Friends and the Sewa International Central Jersey Chapter.

Welcome / Bienvenidxs

Social Justice Congregation

Worshiping and Serving in the City of Trenton, NJ

Located in the heart of Trenton, NJ, Westminster Presbyterian Church is a diverse, open and affirming community-of-faith for all. By God's grace and faithfulness we have remained a vital urban ministry from generation to generation. Empowered by the Holy Spirit we are seeking the shalom of the city!

Westminster, which was chartered in 1898, has transformed along with its neighborhood over the last twelve decades. Our pastor and leaders reflect the changing complexion of the community.

A joyful "rehearsal for the Kin-dom" (Family of God), our intercultural worship takes inspiration from Revelation 7:9-10. "After this I looked, and there was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, robed in white, with palm branches in their hands. They cried out in a loud voice, saying,“Salvation belongs to our God who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb!”
