Marathon Presbyterian Church

A house church network gathering in homes — Scripture, hymns, and life together.

Who we are

Planted in the Heart of the Keys

Marathon Presbyterian Church began gathering in January 2022 as a house church network in Marathon, Florida — midway between Key Largo and Key West.

We meet in homes, not a campus. Our life together is shaped by the pattern of the early church: the apostles’ teaching, fellowship, breaking bread, prayer, and love for one another.

Our story

Priorities

What We Hold First

  • Scripture The sixty-six books of the Bible as our primary and inerrant standard of doctrine.
  • Confession The Westminster Confession of Faith as our secondary doctrinal standard.
  • Discipleship Life-on-life formation and organic leadership training, not a performance event.
  • Independence Elder-led, autonomous, and unaffiliated with a denomination.

House church

Church as a Household of Faith

  • Participatory Gatherings make room for shared prayer, song, and open discussion of Scripture — every member of the body contributing, not a stage and an audience.
  • Relational Discipleship happens in mentor-apprentice relationships and ordinary life together, following the pattern Jesus used with His disciples.
  • Simple Low overhead and high relationship. In a place like the Keys — costly to live, small, and often transitory — the home is a fitting place for the church to thrive.
  • Missional We pursue evangelism, teaching, unity, and love — and we carry mission forward by training future house church leaders in the life of the church itself.
