Welcome to Frame Memorial Presbyterian Church – we are a mid-sized congregation in the Presbyterian Church U.S.A., worshipping at the corner of Church Street and Main Street, where Faith meets Life, in Stevens Point, WI.  We are open-minded and openhearted as we try to live faithfully in a changing world. 

​

We gather each Sunday morning for worship and fellowship – our worship is “thoughtfully traditional” – following some of the same rhythms that many of us grew up with, but sometimes using different words and new understanding, seeking to be guided and energized by the timeless wisdom and endless love of God in Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit. 

​

The Christian Education Committee works hard to provide opportunities for faith formation for all ages especially for our children and youth. Our youth group is a safe place for connections, questions, recreation.

​

Frame was founded in 1865 as the First Presbyterian Church in Stevens Point.  The current building’s cornerstone was laid in 1892, and the building had been begun during the tenure of the Rev. Walter Frame, who died before the building was completed.  The church changed its name to recognize the energy and dedication of Rev. Frame who helped the congregation to reach out in faith and build a house of worship that has stood the test of time. 

​

There have been 23 pastors during Frame’s history, and our new pastor, Rev. Ashley Abraham Hood started in October 2023.  We gather at Frame for worship, fellowship and faith formation, and we reach out beyond our doors in many ways.

​

Our deacons organize ongoing food collections that we take to local food pantries Operation Bootstrap and the  UWSP Food Cupboard to help provide food for individuals and families to prepare at home.

​

Through a ministry called “Frame Feeds” we participate in feeding the hungry in our community by preparing a meal each month served at the Place of Peace, located at Holy Spirit Church, where different organizations take turns on Thursday nights. We partner with Evergreen Community Initiatives to provide sleeping shelter in our fellowship hall for those in need during the cold Wisconsin winter months.

​

All year long, we raise funds for our Frame Community Mission Grants, and each summer give away about $10,000 in grants to local non-profit organizations in Portage County.
