Online PCA Presbytery Maps

pcamaps
I’ve compiled a map with all the geographic boundaries of the different presbyteries of the PCA. While I have seen, and heard of maps of the presbyteries, I do not know of any map that existed online. So I decided to create one, based off the information available on the PCA Administrative Committee’s website. At the bottom you will find the links to all the source files. Some of you might have a few questions?

Why do this?
I began this project by simply putting up the information for my presbytery, but I soon began filling out the northeast, and once i can to a certain point, I thought that I should just make one for the whole denomination.

How much time did this take you?
My wife might just reply by saying “too much time!”. It took me probably around 15 hours to complete, most of that was spent while my wife was sleeping.

What can this be used for?

  • I hope Churches and Presbyteries will use these maps to for the purpose of planning church plants, and other cooperative projects. (This is the primary reason I started this project.)
  • Ministers and Members could use it to learn more about the PCA.

Since most of the boundaries are marked at county lines, its very difficult to understand the size and shape of a presbytery without knowing alot more local geography than most people. Even in my state (Pennsylvania) I did not understand how all the presbyteries connected. I hope this project allows people in the PCA to learn a bit more about the shape and movement of the PCA.
