Our Church

Community Presbyterian Church of Deerfield Beach, Florida, was established in the late 1940s along the then-quiet southeast coast of Florida. A small rectangular worship building was built on the island beside the beach. God worked through the Presbyterian Church, a small number of devoted Christian leaders, and a few families to plant and grow the church. By 1970, the congregation had ballooned to nearly 1,000 members and established fine worship and educational facilities still enjoyed today.

​Our sanctuary offers the feel of a large church. It seats 500 easily and is adorned with a tastefully lit cross and high ceilings. The setting provides terrific acoustics for the proclamation of the Word, for vocals, for the grand piano, and for one of South Florida’s most powerful pipe organs.

​Our intimate chapel seats 80 and provides the quiet simple ambiance of a small church.

​Briggs Hall, the site of original worship services at the church in the early years, provides a terrific casual informal setting for church activities and fellowship.

Today, we are a small church in terms of numbers; roughly 75 active members and about an equal number of affiliate members and friends, but we are diverse, dynamic and welcoming. The church now finds itself in a world that is often neither quiet nor tranquil. Southeast Florida is rich in multicultural diversity and rich therefore in challenges.

​God understands and beckons us to stand with Christ, to honor the Reformed Tradition, relying on God’s Holy Spirit and Holy Scripture to guide our voices and steps. We struggle, strive, and succeed in Christian fellowship by God’s grace.

​We are part of the Presbyterian Church USA family of churches and a member congregation of Tropical Presbytery of Florida. We stand with our PCUSA brothers and sisters in Christ in the creedal, confessional, and theological statements of faith made by the church.

​Our website will provide you with the basics about worship, weddings, missions, the path to membership, and discipleship in and through the church.
