Our Creed
Covenant of Christ our King
Presbyterian Church
Believing that the Church as the body of Christ is the continuing
incarnation of God, we make this covenant with God and with one
another.
We covenant with God to seek:
To be a community in which worship is the first reason for being; to
develop our personal relationships with God through prayer, study, and
service; to seek to be faithful readers, interpreters, and proclaimers
of Scripture as God's inspired Word and to be doers as well as hearers
of this Word; to see where God is at work in the world and to join in
this work; to seek to be disciples of Jesus Christ, the one in whom God
has perfectly revealed himself. to demonstrate God's love and to be
open to receive it.
We covenant with one another
to seek:
To explore the meaning of being the continuing incarnation of God; to
build Christian community, affirming the worth of all persons, and
calling people to experience the forgiveness, purpose and hope that God
provides for us in Christ; to nurture people as they grown in wisdom,
faith and personal relationships; to help people discern their gifts
and to call them to exercise these gifts; to minister to one another,
being sensitive to individuals, families and groups, responding to
needs with appropriate Christian action; to help one another celebrate
the joy of life in Christ; to provide Christian nurture for our
children, affirming our commitment to them during their most formative
years; to provide opportunities and sacrificially from our personal
financial resources in order that the work of the Lord be carried out
effectively and expansively; to be accountable to one another for
living faithfully in this covenant relationship.
We invite you to join with us in worshipping the living God. The world
cannot make us complete human beings. Only with God can we be our true
and best selves. Only through Jesus Christ can we know total renewal
and the fullness of the Holy Spirit. We were created to know God, to
serve God and to praise God. Come and worship. |
