NBPC Mission

The Mission of the National Black Presbyterian Caucus is to serve Jesus Christ, and enrich the black Presbyterian congregations and their communities, through our commitment to congregational enhancement, advocacy, social and racial justice; and challenging the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) when it fails to take seriously the needs of the poor, oppressed, and disenfranchised.

NBPC Purpose

The Purpose of the National Black Presbyterian Caucus is to Enable–Equip–and Empower people of the African Diaspora, in dealing with current issues that adversely affect or that can enhance their lives in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) and society. Persons of the African Diaspora are those throughout the world that are descended from the historic movement of peoples from Africa.

This purpose includes:

  • To promote church growth, including strengthening the spiritual life of black Presbyterian congregations, and individual members in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.);
  • To aggressively combat racism and injustice in the PC (U.S.A);
  • To monitor, advocate, and act on denominational, political, social, cultural, and economic issues affecting the NBPC constituency and the broader community, as appropriate;
  • To achieve full participation of its members in the total Church and society, with a particular emphasis on sensitively and creatively discerning the needs of youth, young adults and the elderly;
  • To vigorously promote the call of black clergywomen to viable and validated ministries including to serve as solo pastors; and enhance the awareness of the gifts of black clergywomen in the PC(USA); and
  • To be intentional in gathering historical data to document our African descendant / black Presbyterian history.
