Presbyterian Church (USA)

Picture
We are part of the Presbyterian Church (USA) and trace our history to 16th Century Protestant Reformation and specifically the writings of John Calvin (1509-1564). We believe in the sovereignty of God, the authority of Scripture, justification by grace through faith and the priesthood of all believers. It is everyone’s job — ministers and lay people alike — to share this Good News with the whole world. That is also why the Presbyterian church is governed at all levels by a combination of clergy and laity, men and women alike.
