For an institution to be effective, it must be able to clearly state why it exists. This is especially true of churches, these gatherings of Christians who are “called out” for a purpose. To that end:
Purpose Statement
Living Out the Word!
Ordinary people testifying to the extraordinary light found in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Mission Statement
With God’s help, Westminster Presbyterian Church fosters a caring, diverse, and deeply spiritual community that nurtures lives of faith, hope, and love. Through prayer and with thanksgiving for God’s grace, we seek to grow in the spirit of Jesus Christ, joyfully committing ourselves to worship, study, and service in the local community and the world.
Visioning Covenant
As we look to Westminster’s future, we are truly hopeful for “God-Sized Dreams” to become realities. In these efforts, we seek to let our light shine before others (Matthew 5:16), to become ministers of reconciliation loving all compassionately (because God loved us first), and to transform and renew our community and world. As unique individuals, as a collective congregation, and recognizing we are all children of God, we seek to:
- grow in the knowledge of God revealed in Jesus and in our own personal and communal experiences
- love one another, being slow to judge and quick to pardon
- embody God’s unifying grace and forgiveness in all our relationships, in all aspects of our lives
- be open-minded to the diversity of opinions in our congregation and the world, and to consider our opinions in light of the command to love God and our neighbor, and
- promote the Kingdom of God on earth, knowing that nothing can separate us from God’s love.
We enter into this covenant freely, promising to abide by its claim on our lives.
