In September 2021, the burlpres Session voted to become a Matthew 25 congregation, an initiative of the PCUSA focused on building congregational vitality, dismantling structural racism and eradicating systemic poverty.

As a Matthew 25 Church, we seek to answer Christ’s urgent call to be a church of action, where God’s love, justice and mercy shine forth and are contagious. By becoming a Matthew 25 Church, we are taking the love in our hearts, the hope for our future and the desire in our souls to faithfully follow Jesus’ example and humbly walk in His steps.
