NEW PASTOR SEARCH – Updates
With fresh hope in this new year, your Pastor Nominating Committee (PNC) is adhering to the results of the 2023 Mission Study as they continue to seek a called pastor. Hopes are high when a candidate’s remarks include experience with community programs, new initiatives, leadership, and teaching, especially when they also recognize the importance to honor the church’s history alongside the transformations that will bring us toward a renewed energy in service to Christ.
It is still open-ended as to what type of person God will lead to us. Thank you for your trust in the PNC members. Rest assured, they are working diligently toward finding the right pastor. Please keep lifting up prayers for the person God will lead to Parma-South. CLICK HERE to view the results of our Mission Study. Considering living in Cleveland?

Seal of the Presbyterian ChurchIn 1 Corinthians, Paul described the church as a body with many members, illustrating the pluralism of the church and the many gifts which God gives to its members.
Our seal is made up of individual parts - the cross, the book, the dove, the fish, the pulpit, the chalice and the flames - when taken together, form an encompassing visual and symbolic unity, while not exhausting the richness of possible interpretations.

Our History
Parma-South got its hyphenated name as a result of the merger of two Presbyterian churches: Parma Presbyterian and South Presbyterian. Parma Presbyterian Church was organized by the Presbytery in 1835, while the South Presbyterian Church began in 1892. The Cleveland Presbytery eventually recommended the merger of South Presbyterian Church with Parma Presbyterian, and in 1937 the new congregation of Parma-South Presbyterian Church was created. Our current sanctuary was dedicated in 1951.
