About Burlington Presbyterian Church:
Burlington Presbyterian Church is located at a busy crossroads in a bustling community. Since our organization by Boston Presbytery in 1962, we have sought to provide a center of faith and family for many who have come to work at local technology companies, Hanscom Air Force Base, and in related fields (we even have a few native New Englanders!). At age 40, the church retains a youthful feel, and we are seeking new ways to minister with young families, inspired by our increasing flock of little ones. We are small enough (150 members) to care as an extended family, but large and diverse enough to sustain an interesting mix of programs.
Our Vision of God’s Call to Us:
Our door is open and Christ’s hospitality is offered to
the believing and the seeking,
the questioning and the doubting,
God’s children of every background and lifestyle;
Our worship uses many ways to praise God;
Our community nurtures friendships,
and committed caring;
Our learning fosters a thoughtful faith,
affirming our varied places along the Christian journey;
Our journey leads us outward,
into community and world,
with Good News in our hearts,
hands ready to serve,
and a commission to
“…do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with God. ” (Micah 6:8)
