Potwin Presbyterian Church is...
... a place to worship God with friendly, loving, laughing people of all ages-growing in faith and commitment to mission, music and service.
Members think of Potwin as a place that is inclusive and friendly, a place to worship and participate in fellowship together, to celebrate and to join in sorrow together, and a place from which to reach out in Christ's love to the rest of the world.

... a warm and loving place.
Potwin Presbyterian Church is on the south side of the historic Potwin Place neighborhood in the capital city of Topeka, Kansas.
It has served faithfully from the corner of Washburn and Willow for more than 80 years and existed as a congregation since 1889.
While once a much larger congregation, we are now a small church with a neighborly atmosphere.
Our building was built to be a place of worship and a place to gather and serve the surrounding neighborhoods.

... commited to mission work.
The church’s role is to be the presence of Christ. Potwin’s dedicated members put in the time to make the church a viable,
mission-oriented entity. The church building is a meeting place to worship God and celebrate the sacraments and a
meeting place for various neighborhood groups. These include 12-step groups, Girl Scouts, local businesses and the
Potwin Neighborhood Association. The church has hosted concerts and activities to promote the arts and health.
Many members visit and phone housebound members to keep them connected, and in-home communion is offered.
Our Parents Morning Out, a free monthly morning of fun for children, is in its fifth year. We are actively involved in
supporting local organizations such as Vida, Doorstep and the Topeka Rescue Mission.
Members also contribute financially to many denominational and global mission efforts.

... a place to meet with God.
Everything we say and do as a church is a means by which to worship God.
Therefore, while the Sunday morning worship gathering is central to our lives as followers of Christ,
is not the only way we worship God. From Sunday Evening Sing Alongs to Bible and book studies to special
services at other times and places, we strive to make sure that everything we do is to the glory of God.
We hope you will want to join us in sharing the glory.
