Tent Presbyterian Church, colloquially known as "Tent Church", is a Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) congregation in Georges Township, Pennsylvania. Established in 1773, it has conducted continuous worship services since its founding. The church derives its name from the canvas tent used for early services. It is located at 275 Tent Church Road.
The brick meetinghouse was completed in 1832. During the 1905 Rand Powder Mill explosion in nearby Fairchance, the building's windows were damaged.
The adjacent cemetery includes graves from the late 18th century, with interments of veterans from the American Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and the Civil War. In 2023, the congregation was honored with state and federal recognition for its 250th anniversary, including a Congressional Record commendation.
