First Presbyterian Church of Monrovia

I will start off by saying Ms. Linda is a warm and caring teacher my daughter just loved her.
On the other hand the Director Ms. Davis is not very warm, caring, or welcoming. We pulled our daughter out asap. She is the reason why we left.
I hate to give negative feedback but, it is the truth. I do not recommend your child or children to attend this preschool. There is an obvious reason why the classes are not full with students. They need to implement a positive atmosphere and acceptance of each individual to which allows the process of growth and development to unfold and progress in a way that God inspired. The Director Ms. Davis definitely needs help in that area… which should come naturally from a Director of a Christian Preschool. Ms. Davis gave off the wrong vibe from the start. We were paying 475.00 for 4 days and if we wanted our child to stay for picnic we still had to bring a lunch and still pay 6 dollars a day; which doesn’t make sense.
There are better preschools out there that offer the true Christian experience. Please, please, please look around before you decide to enroll you child or children at FPC… please do not make the same mistake we made.
Our recommendation’s will be Arcadia Friends Community Church Pre-​school or Holy Angles.

My husband and I got married here last year and have become happily involved with the church ever since. It has been easy to become involved with this church community since there are many different groups who have been welcoming. I love to attend Sunday lunches with the ‘Forever Young’ group and the Saturday ‘Prayer Shawl’ is a fun ladies group. Several of my new friends there go to small group Bible Studies during the week (Some are evening, week days, or before church as schedules differ) — I have not checked out all of them, but I love the good Bible teaching from the pulpit. There are youth groups, older groups, and impromptu outings with a combo of Praise singing and choral songs during worship. My dream was to find a community of loving, godly worshipers… so glad to have found this one!

My family is not particularly «churchy» but we like it.
My husband & I went church shopping in the summer of 2000 & chose this one. The day we went the pastor spoke about other religions very matter-​of-​factly, with no prejudice or tone to his voice. He was also wearing a polo shirt, which I liked, but it was 80*. We have been going since then & we like it. The people are very nice, I have never experienced a clique or heavy handed bible beating. I have met with the pastor to talk about my concerns with organized religion in general & specifically the Presbyterian Church a few times. He is always responcive & honest. He is willing to give his opinion, discuss grey areas & say he doesnt know. Which I find refreshing. We chose not to become members but we have gone almost every week for 5 years. My kids go to Preschool there & I have developed friends from there. So theres my 2 cents.
