History of Clinton United Presbyterian Church
Clinton United Presbyterian Church had its beginnings in Clinton, Pennsylvania in 1797 when a dedicated group of men and women formed a congregation as an Associate Presbyterian church. Three years later the first church building made of logs stood near the center of the present-day cemetery. They called their first pastor that year as well. Clinton outgrew its space and a brick building was built between 1830-1833. Our current building was dedicated in 1924 and the education wing was completed in 1957. We became part of the Presbyterian Church (USA) in 1983. Clinton has had 21 pastors (Pastor Karen is 21) and has had as many as 350 members.
We are blessed with a wide diversity of ages, having a heart for young and old alike. Recently, Clinton has focused its ministry on children and families, opening a pre-school and hiring, for the first time in Clinton’s history, a children’s ministry director.
Clinton United Presbyterian Church is proud of its heritage and the challenges and risks taken by congregational members of the past. We now anticipate the future together as we move forward.

First time Visitors
Located five minutes away from Pittsburgh International Airport, we are a congregation averaging about 75 each week in worship. Our church is blessed with a diverse age range, having a heart for the young and old alike. Our service is open to you, your family, and your children. You are welcome to come dressed formally or in jeans; whatever makes you feel comfortable for worship. There is a parking lot available to the left of the church building. The church is handicapped accessible through a ramp. You may enter the church through the front double red doors of the building, where you will be met by a greeter who will hand you a bulletin with the order of worship. Find a pew and enjoy the service. Your children are invited to join the Pastor up front for children's time. If you would like you may send them downstairs with one of our volunteer's after the children's time, or utilize the downstairs fellowship hall as a wiggle area.

Nursery / Childcare
We currently have nursery/childcare during the worship service. Any parent or grandparent who would like to take advantage of this option, can send their little ones downstairs to the nursery with one of our volunteers immediately following the children's time.
Starting Sunday May 5th, we will be starting our summer nursery schedule. Children will remain in worship with their parents. We will have worship bags available in the back of the sanctuary for your children. These bags will have small activities to help occupy little ones during the worship service. Simply return the bags after the worship service. These bags are geared toward children ages Pre-k - 2nd grade. If your little one becomes restless parents are encouraged to use the Family Worship Area located in the Fellowship Hall.
