The Presbyterian Church's Page

The Presbyterian Church in Morristown is on a mission to: • Proclaim faithfully the Good News of the Gospel in fresh and compelling ways • Gather people into a welcoming caring grace-filled community • Nurture relevant thoughtful, committed disciples All toward continuing Jesus Christ’s earthly ministry of building God’s Kingdom, here and now, while sacrificially serving a world in need.

God has called us to be a Christ-centered people. Our life and faith are rooted in the promises of God fulfilled in the life, death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Claimed by God's love in Christ, we claim these promises for our lives, work and ministry. Guided by the Holy Spirit, we carry out Christ's commission to make new disciples, upbuild the church in love and serve Christ in all times, places and ways. Therefore, we dutifully, reverently and joyfully affirm that: * God speaks to us through the Bible in varied and relevant ways, and God's direction and will for us are made known as we read, study, teach and share in Scripture.
* The church is a fellowship of believers caring for and comforting each other and ministering to all who enter.
* God calls the church to speak for and act with the poor, the weak, the forgotten of our church, community and world.
* Within Christ's universal church, we are guided by our Presbyterian heritage and committed to its traditions of confessing, worshiping, serving and governing.
* God has given each of us gifts to be used for the common good.
* God calls us to speak and live for Christ, invite others to join us in common ministry and nurture them in their journeys of faith.
* God is acting now in each of us; in the struggle to know and do what is faithful, God's Spirit is felt and known.
* The future is always open; in new times, God calls the church to a new response. The church is never finished in its work and mission. Praise be to God!
