Second Presbyterian Church is the PC(USA) "Historical Site #1," the designated oldest recognized Presbyterian building in America! But this church is not a monument, it's a mission. We are a congregation known for its friendliness and its heart for service to ALL God's people. We are committed to serving our still-creating God in ways that are yet to be imagined! We hope you feel called to contribute toward the preservation of Second Presbyterian Church and the many ways in which God is working through this particular place.
Be a part of the legacy of Second Presbyterian and GIVE TODAY. Contribute to the fund (choose Steeple Fund from the drop down ‘fund’ options), in the offering plate, or deliver your donations to the church office.
Last year the property committee oversaw extensive studies of the materials that make up our buildings. The studies concluded that the structure is sound and a fund has since been founded to paint the steeple. Under the leadership of Patterson Smith and the Property Committee, the Mixed Adults Sunday School class helped kick off a fund to paint the steeple as they pledged significant contributions in early 2019.
As of November 12, 2019 there is $68,525 pledged toward the The Steeple Fund. Estimates are being submitted and work is expected to begin soon.
