The First Presbyterian Church of Long Island was founded in 1870 and in 1911 we moved into our current building. Community-wise, we are a church located in the heart of Port Jefferson – a tight-knit, historic town on the Long Island Sound containing several other churches of various faiths, good restaurants, and many local shops. The local culturally-diverse population covers all, from young to old, blue-collar workers, business owners, and professionals. There is also a homeless population. New local housing within walking distance of our church is being developed.
