About Us

At Northridge Presbyterian Church, we believe that the church is a gift that everyone deserves to enjoy. The church is a community of people who are committed to doing life together – enduring life’s heartaches and celebrating life’s joys, seeking out laughter, pursuing a more just world, and following the path Jesus set out for us.

Northridge is an open and affirming congregation within the Grace Presbytery of Presbyterian Church (USA).
