Jefferson Presbyterian is a small, yet diverse community church located at 4450 Jefferson Hwy, in the shadow of the Huey P. Long Bridge.
Although we lost our sanctuary in early 2008 due to a tragic fire, we continue to hold weekly worship services and other activities in our Fellowship Hall. Despite our loss, our faith is stronger than ever and we are dedicated to rebuilding our sanctuary so that we may continue to serve God and our community.
We are located a few blocks from the Huey P. Long bridge, right next to Jefferson Elementary School.

Our New Sanctuary

After a lot of hard work and dedication, the construction on our new sanctuary is complete. We had a wonderful dedication service on Sunday, Oct. 28th with a standing room only packed house. We sincerely thank everyone who helped us with our rebuilding and we invite you to come join us this Sunday and see this wonderful worship space.
