A church is not a building; it’s a community of human beings who choose to follow Jesus Christ. A church is also not simply the sum of its history; rather, it is a present and living reality. That being said, the physical facilities in which a congregation gathers for worship, study, mission and fellowship do matter. Even though a church is here and now, its past has helped shape its present. The Brick Presbyterian Church, a living community of modern disciples, is blessed both with beautiful buildings and a rich history that house and have shaped that living community.
