OCEAN VIEW PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
We All Invite You to be a Part of our Life and Ministry.
The Ocean View Presbyterian Church is a congregation focused on growing in the faith and living out that faith in mission to others and to each other. Not content with simply reciting doctrine, we have committed ourselves to looking into the Scriptures so as to uncover the ongoing story of our faith. We seek to be a part of that story. The congregation as a whole, and each of its committees, is actively engaged in doing mission, and on communicating in real ways the good news of Jesus Christ.
Ocean View Presbyterian is a historic church, dating back to 1856. We have a long and proud tradition, but seek to take that tradition and move into the future with it. We also have a wonderful friendship and fellowship with each other that can be seen and felt in all aspects of ministry at OVPC.

The July Mission Project
Sponsored By Our Board of Deacons
The 11th Annual Warrior Family Beach Week will take place September 3rd through the 8th, 2024, in Bethany Beach Delaware. Each year, Operation Seas the Day relies on the overwhelming support of the local and surrounding community to help make the Warrior Family Beach Week a success. The OVPC Deacons have once again selected this organization to be the July Mission for Ocean View Presbyterian Church. Please prayerfully consider donating to this month’s mission.

OVPC Is More Than a Church
In 2003, the congregation of OVPC brought a dream to life and opened Memorial Hall - fully funded by the members by the generosity of their spirit and the fierce dedication of their time and talents in fundraising efforts. The purpose of this hall was never meant to be strictly for use by the church, but, a place for our community that can be rented for extremely low rates so that their non-profit groups could have a place to meet. We have a great many HOA's that meet on our campus as well as other community service groups and recovery/support groups. If you are looking for a place to meet, please visit our facilities page or contact the church office directly. We would be delighted to host your organization!
Our historic sanctuary, our most holy space, is also available for weddings, funerals, and memorial services .
