Mission statement
The mission of KCPC is "Training the Saints to Transform the World" (Ephesians 4:12).
History
The Korean Central Presbyterian Church (renamed from Korean Central Church) was founded on November 4, 1973, by Rev. Myung Ho Yoon with 20 Korean-American families. The first service was in his residence at 313 Park Street, N.E. Vienna, Virginia. Despite the growing pains of its early years, Rev. Won Sang Lee who became the succeeding senior pastor faithfully served the congregation for the next 26 years. With its emphasis on becoming a missional community of faith, the congregation grew to over 3,700 members by 2003.
After the retirement of Rev. Won Sang Lee and his installation as pastor emeritus, Rev. Danny C. Ro became the third senior pastor of KCPC starting from October, 2003. Rev. Ro resigned on July 1, 2012, as the senior pastor of KCPC to answer a call from Sarang Community Church of Southern California as its senior pastor. A new senior pastor, Rev. Eung-yul David Ryoo was called and installed in 2013 as its fourth pastor. To accommodate the growing size of the congregation and to expand the reach of its vision, KCPC relocated from the previous 45,475-square-foot (4,224.8 m2) Vienna campus of 12 acres (49,000 m2) to a new 172,500-square-foot (16,030 m2) Centreville campus of 80 acres (320,000 m2) July 11, 2010. In addition to the main campus, KCPC operates the Community Service Center in downtown Washington, D.C. (319 R St. N.W.) and the Culpeper Retreat Center in Sperryville, Virginia (13092 Major Brown Dr.).
