Established in 1968 as the regional governing body of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), the Presbytery of San Diego oversees more than 30 PCUSA congregations and over 7,000 members across San Diego County, Imperial County, and the Hawaiian Islands as part of the Synod of Southern California and Hawaii. The Udall Street office handles ordinations, clergy transitions, congregational assessments, and Book of Order compliance for the 30 member churches in the presbytery, with Point Loma Community Presbyterian Church serving as the closest local PCUSA congregation under its jurisdiction. Quarterly stated meetings of the presbytery rotate among member churches, with 2026 sessions scheduled at Fletcher Hills, Chula Vista, Westminster Escondido, and First Presbyterian San Diego. Beyond clergy support, the presbytery resources affiliated educational ministries operating on member-church campuses; Red Brick Preschool at Point Loma Community Presbyterian Church represents that pattern, running an early-childhood program out of a Presbyterian congregation's facility under shared liability and insurance arrangements common to PCUSA preschool ministries. A long-standing covenant partnership with the Presbytery of the Northwest Border supports binational mission work in Baja California, Imperial County, and southern San Diego County. The most complex work the presbytery handles is church planting and pastoral assessment, which involves multi-year coaching, formal psychological and theological evaluation, and ecclesiastical examination before a candidate can be ordained as a Minister of Word and Sacrament.
