GOLETA PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

We are a mission-oriented church and seek to maintain a critical awareness of how well the church and the wider society serve "the least of these." Locally we are active with Transition House, Community Kitchen, Isla Vista Youth Project, and Alzheimer's Walk. For over 20 years we have offered a semi-annual "Love of God" retreat for youth from our church and wider community. We have a sister relationship with a Presbyterian church in Patriensa, Ghana. Donations from GPC helped build a bakery there, where a number of people are employed and which serves not only the local community but surrounding communities as well. Members of the Patriensa church have visited with us here more than once, and members of GPC have visited them in Ghana... We are a community of faith seeking to know and serve Jesus Christ in the world through committed hearts, open minds, and willing hands.
