  • Die Presbyterian Church (U.S.A. ) oder PC (USA) ist eine mainline protestantische Kirche in den Vereinigten Staaten. Die Kirche gehört zu den Reformierten Kirchen des Protestantismus, deren Ursprung mit dem Reformator Johannes Calvin liegt. Presbyterianern führen ihre theologische Tradition von ihm über den schottischen Reformator John Knox und das Bekenntnis von Westminster fort. Von Großbritannien aus gelangte der Presbyterianismus in die USA. Die Kirche ist die größte presbyterianische Kirche in den Vereinigten Staaten und entstand 1983 wieder durch die Fusion der früheren Presbyterian Church in the United States, der südlichen Zweig der US-amerikanischen Presbyterianer, und der United Preybyterian Church in the United States of America, der nördlichen Zweig, die vor dem US-Bürgerkrieg über das Thema der Sklaverei auseinander gegangen waren. Die PC (USA) hat gegenwärtig nach eigenen Angaben rund 2,4 Millionen Mitglieder und 14.000 Pastoren. Die Kirche ist Mitglied im Nationalen Kirchenrat der USA und in der Kirchengemeinschaft Churches Uniting in Christ. Volle Abendmahlsgemeinschaft wurde mit der Evangelisch-Lutherische Kirche in Amerika (ELCA), der Reformed Church in America in der Formula of Agreement vereinbart. Volle Abendmahlsgemeinschaft besteht ebenso mit der United Church of Christ, der Union Evangelischer Kirchen (UEK) in Deutschland und der Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) im Rahmen der ökumenischen Partnerschaft. Die Frauenordination ist in der Presbyterian Church (USA) erlaubt. Seit 2000 ist die Segnung gleichgeschlechtlicher Paare möglich.

  • Presbyterian Church (USA) (em Português, "Igreja Presbiteriana ") é uma denominação de igreja Cristã Protestante moderada (ou "liberal," como a que está oposta da "Presbyterian Church in America" a "conservadora") nos Estados Unidos. Ela faz parte da Reforma Protestante de João Calvino. Embora no Brasil esta possa ser erroneamente chamada de "Igreja Presbiteriana dos Estados Unidos da América", ela não é a igreja Prebiteriana "dos" Estados Unidos da América, mas somente Igreja Presbiteriana "EUA". Ela é a maior denominação Presbiteriana nos EUA, e foi estabelecida, em 1983, pelo resultado da fusão entre a United Presbyterian Church in the United States of America (em Português, Igreja Presbiteriana Unida nos Estados Unidos da América), que tinha congregações em todo território americano e a Presbyterian Church in the United States (em Português, Igreja Presbiteriana nos Estados unidos), cuja congregações estavam no Sul e nos estados de fronteira dos Estados Unidos da América. O uso discriminado de "Norte" ou "Sul" a qualquer uma delas, é politicamente errado, não faz parte do nome oficial de nenhuma delas, e é pejorativo. Esta denominação reunida tem aproximadamente 2,3 milhões de membros, 10 mil congregações, e 14.000 pastores ordenados. O escritório central do Conselho da Assembléia Geral fica em Louisville, Kentucky. Ela é membro do National Council of Churches (em Português, "Conselho Nacional de Igrejas", nos EUA), da World Alliance of Reformed Churches e do World Council of Churches. Em 2006, a denominação se tornou a primeira no mundo a chamar todos os seus membros para se tornarem carbon neutral (em Português, "indivíduos pro a neutralização de carbono", ou "zero carbono"). A denominação possue um escritório para lobbying em Washington, DC. Website oficial da Igreja Presbiteriana (EUA)
