About Us

CORE VALUES

As the body of Jesus Christ in the new century, we value:
  • Christian inclusivity that intentionally seeks to welcome and support individuals and churches from a broad diversity of theological perspectives

  • children and youth as gifts entrusted to us by God, and whose growth and protection is our responsibility

  • the Great Commission which includes both social justice and evangelism as essential elements of holistic witness to Christ

  • the great diversity found within the bounds of our presbytery; and we therefore seek to reflect the geographical, racial ethnic, gender, generational, and other types of human diversity within the unity of the Church

  • stewardship that expresses the truth of God’s ownership and sovereignty in every area of life including nature, finances, time, abilities, relationships, and culture

  • the development of healthy churches since they are the primary places where disciples are made and out of which flows Christ’s ministry to the world

  • the development of healthy pastors who are committed wholeheartedly to Christ, equipped to lead the church, and involved in nurturing accountable relationships

  • our Presbyterian heritage as expressed in the ordering of our corporate life in worship, government, and confession
