Who We Are
Today's Guilford Park Presbyterian Church traces its history back to 1947. In that year, as Greensboro grew to the northwest, one of the city's oldest churches, Buffalo Presbyterian,
assisted there in the formation of the Fairfield-Kirkwood Chapel. The first services at the chapel were held outdoors under the oaks at the southeast corner of Fernwood Drive and Fairfield Avenue.
The congregation began with a welcoming spirit and has retained it over the years as it has grown. Currently, Guilford Park members and friends participate in an expanding range
of ministries involving worship, biblical study and education, pastoral care, service and mission, and fellowship opportunities for people of all ages. Read more about our history. Blessed with talented leadership in pew and pulpit, Guilford Park continues to seek new
ways to preach and demonstrate the gospel message of faith and love in a changing world. There are many opportunities to join in, and we welcome all those who wish to join
us in faith and service. |
