Our Invitation is Open to All
Discover GMPC
We are a resort village church, relaxed and warm. Resident or tourist, you will be among friends who desire
to know Christ and make Christ known.
We believe that the purpose of the worship service is to provide an environment that leads people in the exaltation of our Creator, as we feel the presence, grace, and power of God in being part of the body of Christ.

2024 Bible Reading Challenge
The Bible is essential reading in the life of a Christian. As the Catechism states, it is important for us to have the Bible laid upon our hearts. The Bible is one of the primary means of how we learn God’s character, rules for our lives, work in the world. Megan Smith, Director of Youth & Young Adult Ministries, is challenging the GMPC youth this year to read through the whole Bible in one year, and make a practice of daily reading in order to grow their knowledge of God and deepen their relationship with Him. Megan is extending this challenge to the entire church so that we can encourage and equip each other.
The reading plan will be available as a paper copy and as a monthly bookmark in the sanctuary for your use, and is also available on the Bible App, titled CCV: The Bible in One Year by clicking here.
Tables of Eight Fellowship Dinners
Tables of Eight is an opportunity for our church family to share a meal together and enjoy Christian fellowship. Groups of eight people will be invited to various homes or alternate locations to share a meal together. We encourage all members and regular church attendees to participate and learn more about our church family in an informal social setting as we imitate Jesus’ table ministry. For more information, please email tablesof8@gmpc.org.
Pastoral Search
The Reverend Doctor David McElrath, beloved pastor of Graham Memorial Presbyterian Church in Coronado, retired on January 1, 2023, after 30 years of service to this congregation and community. The Reverend David Rodriguez arrived on March 1, 2023, to serve out as Interim Pastor.
The process of calling a new pastor is a multi-staged process in the Presbyterian Church and involves the congregation prayerfully discerning what the mission of their church is now and where they believe God would have their mission go in the future. Potential pastors can then be matched to the congregation, examined by a Pastor Nominating Committee as representatives of the congregation, and then recommended to the members of the congregation to choose and call the pastor they believe God wants to lead them.
