Warrenton Presbyterian Church is a vibrant and welcoming congregation in the heart of Old Town Warrenton, Virginia. Our church’s tagline is: “A Servant Community,” as we seek to follow our servant Lord, Jesus Christ.  We are a proud member of the Presbyterian Church U.S.A. and the Shenandoah Presbytery.  

We welcome women and men, young and old and everyone in between to join us in ministry and fellowship here at WPC!  As a connectional church, we also seek to be in ministry and fellowship with other denominations and faith communities seeking to learn from one another as we serve Christ and neighbor.

Our Story

Presbyterians began worshiping in Fauquier County as early as 1771, and were instrumental in the founding of the old Warren Academy as well as the town of Warrenton.  Legend has it that when our former building was destroyed by a tornado, only the pulpit and Bible remained intact.  We have worshiped in our current building since 1855, and in 1999, we added on our current sanctuary and fellowship hall. From 1771 to today, our congregation has remained one that sees itself as engaged with our town and wider community—which is why we highly value being a Main Street congregation.   (From “The Story of A Church: A History of the Warrenton Presbyterian Church” by Rev. J. Richard Winter, Pastor Emeritus)
