Providence Forge Presbyterian Church
Share Our Page
Third oldest church in the Presbytery
The church was organized in 1760 and is shown on the records of the old Hanover Presbytery as New Kent Church. In the early 1800's this church was reorganized, and regular worship was held in the Colonial Church of St. Peter's, which the Presbyterians repaired and preserved. In 1856 the site on Mt. Olivet was purchased, and a church built. Services were held there until 1936, when the congregation was moved to it's present location.
What does it mean to be a Presbyterian?
Come join us in our study of "To be a Presbyterian" on Sunday mornings in the Good Fellowship room at 10:00AM http://www.presbyteryofthejames.org/links.htm============================================================================ "There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all and through all" (Ephesians 4:4-6) ====================== ====================== ====================== ============ The Presbyterian Church is a Christian community centered around the six Great Ends of the Church:=========== 1. The Proclamation of the Gospel: We believe that the good news of God's love in Jesus Christ is for all the peoples of the world.=== 2. Building up Christian community: We strive to develop loving, caring, inclusive congregations that show the love of God through prayer, nurture, mutual support, and Christian service.=== 3. The Worship of God: We respond to God's love through worship by praising God, praying together, and responding to God's word.========= 4. Theology Matters: Presbyterians love God with both their hearts and their minds, and thus seek to study the scripture and affirm together the sovereignty of God, the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the power of the Holy Spirit.=== 5. The Promotion of Social Justice: We have been saved in order to serve! We believe in and work for social, racial, and economic justice for all of God's peoples.=== 6. Demonstrating our Faith: Presbyterians seek to be a people who practice what they preach.
