Welcome to our website!  Glenshaw Presbyterian Church (GPC) is a vibrant community of faith located in the northern suburbs of Pittsburgh.  GPC is a church with a big heart, ready to welcome all.  It is big enough to offer programs and ministries for all ages, supported by an excellent and committed staff, and is small enough that we can all know each other.  GPC is a place where we strive to grow together as disciples of Christ – learning and worshiping and serving together, a place where we encourage one another, care for one another, celebrate with one another, and join with one another in loving our neighbors in our community and around the world.

We hope that you will learn more about our faith community by browsing through this website.  Below, we have collected answers to a few of the most common questions that first-time visitors may have.

Where is the church located?

The church is located in Glenshaw on Glenn Avenue between Mt. Royal Boulevard and Butler Plank Road.  Get a map and directions here.

In addition, you can view and read about the various rooms within our church via our virtual tour page.

What can I expect on Sunday?

We come together as a community to worship each Sunday at 10:30 AM.  Music is provided by our beautiful organ, our chancel choir, and our handbell choir. Communion is served on the first Sunday of each month.  You are welcome to join us regardless of your current level of spirituality or your background.

After worship, we have fellowship and snacks at 11:30 AM — on the front lawn during the summertime and in the parlor the rest of the year.  This is a great time to catch up with old friends and make new ones.

How long do your worship services last?
Our services last about an hour.

Is there parking available?
Plenty of parking is available in the lots surrounding the church. There is also ample parking for anyone with limitations in the lot immediately adjacent to the main entrance.

Are your facilities accessible?
Yes, the main level of the church is wheelchair accessible via a ramp.

Where is the main entrance?
Since our parking lots are in the back of the church, the entrances that are most used are also at the back of the church.  Most people use the main entrance, which is next to the ramp.  Another entrance is across from the front door of the Early Learning Center building. There will be greeters at each entrance to welcome you, answer questions, and help you get where you want to go.

What do you believe?
Glenshaw Presbyterian Church is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church (USA). An excellent summary of Presbyterian history and beliefs can be found on the Presbyterian Mission website.
