 About Our Pastor

Rev. Betsy Simpson has been the Pastor of First Presbyterian Church, Glen Cove, for over 10 years, having previously served as Pastor of First Presbyterian Church of Southold.   Rev.

Div. from Princeton Theological Seminary in 1974.  In 1978 she earned a M.A. in education from Castleton State College in Vermont and then a Th.

 Rev.
