FPC is a no-pressure, nurturing environment that allows everyone to grow
and to journey in faith at their own pace. Whether you are beginning to explore the
Christian faith, are a longtime Christian or are returning to the church after a time away,
there is a place for you at Fallston Presbyterian Church.
