 This church is by far the largest of the Presbyterian churches in the country, in fact the second-largest among the non-RCath communities, after the Assemblies of God Church. It is present in the whole country and among the whole population; it is particularly strong in the states of Tabasco, Chiapas, Campeche, Yucatan (Southeast), Nuevo Leon, and the Federal District (Mexico City).

The church was born in 1872 like a mssionary work from Presbyterian Church of America, but it began to be the Iglesia Nacional Presbiteriana de México in 1947, when the General Assembly was created.
