Who we are
Collegiate Presbyterian Church is flourishing congregation of about 500 members located just west of the Iowa State University campus in Ames, Iowa. “CPC” is sometimes referred to as a “university church.” And so it is. Ministry to Iowa State faculty, staff and especially to students forms a core part of our mission. Yet, from the very beginning CPC has heard God’s call to be a “town and gown” congregation; seeking to be “a combination of student and community church in which in every essential respect the work is absolutely coordinate.” 1
1 Dean R. E. Buchanan in 1917.
The mission of Collegiate Presbyterian Church is:
To worship and serve God
with energy, intelligence, imagination, and love. We believe that God’s grace engages the whole person– body, mind, and spirit.
To welcome all people to the community of Christ
whatever your age, income, race, gender, or sexual orientation. We believe Christ’s love is a gift for all to share in an environment of worship, freedom, and mutual support.
To grow in faith
through worship, education, companionship, and service. We believe the spiritual life is a journey of growth in Christ, and we are guided by scripture, the Spirit, and the communion we share as disciples of Jesus.
To live Christ’s love for the world
through service to our neighbors, our community, the nation and the world. We seek to embrace Christ’s vision of peace and justice in every aspect of our lives.
