Mission Statement
Established
in 1955, Trinity is a congregation of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church.
That we are presbyterians means that each local congregation is
governed by presbyters (elders), elected by and from among the people,
who share with the pastor in the oversight of the church. Local
churches are joined together under the government of regional
assemblies called presbyteries, made up of the Orthodox Presbyterian
ministers of the region and elders from each of the member churches.
Commissioners from each presbytery meet together annually in a General
Assembly.
The
word "orthodox" in our name means that we adhere to the historic
teachings of the Christian church, and particularly of the portion of
the church known as Reformed. We are committed to the Bible as "the
Word of God, the only infallible rule of faith and practice." Our
ministers, elders, and deacons subscribe to the historic Westminster
Confession of Faith, and Larger and Shorter Catechisms as an accurate
expression of what we believe the Bible to teach.
We confess our faith in Christ alone as our Lord and our Savior from sin and seek to serve him in all that we do.
As
a church of Jesus Christ we exist to glorify God. In submission to his
Word and in reliance on the Holy Spirit we are to show forth his glory
through:
We do these things looking forward to the great and glorious return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. |
