“A house my Father’s house” the church brochure proclaims. Bayshore Presbyterian Church stands majestically overlooking Tampa Bay. Its history is rich. Its roots trace back to the Church of Scotland. The Protestant Reformation of the 16th century shaped its very being.
The church’s elders and its governing Session reflect this heritage. They inherited their terminologies from the Kirk of Scotland. Interestingly the founding fathers used the Presbyterian Session Model to shape the American government. Can you imagine the influence of this small South Tampa church?
Bayshore Presbyterian Church is more than just a building. It’s a community. It’s a place where people from all walks of life gather to worship. They explore their faith. It’s a welcoming home. This house welcomes all. People gather here to find peace and solace.
The church isn’t isolated. It’s part of a larger network. It’s connected to other churches within the Presbytery of Tampa Bay. This shows its commitment to working together. It’s a family of believers. They serve their fellow man.
The church holds regular worship services. Everyone is welcome. Membership is open to all who seek a closer relationship with God. They offer adult education classes too. They seek to live the love of Christ grow as disciples. They reach others with the good news.
A recent highlight was the Christmas Cantata. Led by Nicole Cordero the choir’s performance was a resounding success. Their rendition of Eugene Butler’s Christmas Cantata was truly memorable. The church is lively and vibrant. It’s a place of beauty and joy.
