"I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth."
1 Corinthians 3:6-7

Theology of Ministry

We are confident according to Scripture that it is the Holy Spirit who changes lives. As much as we would like to be, we are not the Holy Spirit. However we are responsible for planting and watering. The main way in which we plant and water is through the “means of grace;” the means of grace are, primarily, the Word, Prayer, and Sacrament. 

Word: We are to be faithful in preaching and teaching God’s Word to his people. We are to be faithful in preaching and teaching Christ in all of Scripture. 

Prayer: We are to be in prayer at all times for God’s people, for God’s will to be done, and for the working of the Holy Spirit to make us more like Christ. 

Sacrament: Jesus gave the church two sacraments: Baptism and the Lord’s Supper. We are to be faithful in administering these two sacraments, for both sacraments points us to what Jesus has done, is doing, and will do to redeem his people.       

We must be faithful to preach God’s word, we must be faithful in prayer, and we must continually administer the sacraments, but it is only Christ who can and does change people. 

Our theology of ministry can be summed up by Heidelberg Catechism, Question 1.

What is your only comfort in life and in death?
That I am not my own, but belong— body and soul, in life and in death— to my faithful Savior Jesus Christ. He has fully paid for all my sins with his precious blood, and has set me free from the tyranny of the devil. He also watches over me in such a way that not a hair can fall from my head without the will of my Father in heaven: in fact, all things must work together for my salvation.  Because I belong to him, Christ, by his Holy Spirit, assures me of eternal life and makes me wholeheartedly willing and ready from now on to live for him.  

Mission

The mission of Covenant Presbyterian Church is to equip and encourage the saints to worship God and love and serve their neighbors.

Vision

The vision of Covenant Presbyterian Church is to have every member glorify and enjoy God by serving Him daily in the ways and with the means He provides.

We are a means-of-grace church.  By that, we are saying that we believe God uses certain means to enable Christians to receive the benefits of redemption.  Our confessions and catechisms state that there are three principal ordinary means of grace and they are the Word of God, the sacraments, and prayer, and these are elements of public worship. Everything that occurs between the Call To Worship and the Benediction is the most important activity the church does all week. In 
harmony with that proposition, we are committed to the singing of historic, traditional hymns and psalms and we typically preach through books of the Bible. 


​We would love to have you join us each Sunday for morning and evening worship.​
