Description of Organization

INTRODUCTION

Westminster Presbyterian Church, a member of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), is a vibrant body of believers that by God’s grace enjoys a rich spiritual heritage. Founded in 1901 in northeast Atlanta, GA, Westminster has worshipped the Lord and proclaimed the gospel of Christ for more than a century and continues to thrive today. We are grateful for the blessings our congregation has enjoyed from God’s hand over our 123-year history, and we recognize that all of God’s spiritual and material gifts to us are unmerited and flow from his mercy alone.

At Westminster, we seek for God to call people into reverent and joyful worship of his triune name through the ordinary means of grace (Reading and Preaching of God’s Word, Prayer, Sacraments of Baptism & the Lord’s Supper). It is by these ordinary means of grace that we believe the lost are found and the saints are built up unto salvation through repentance and faith in Christ and are equipped for lives of holy service in union with him.

Westminster Presbyterian Church exists to:

Glorify God

• worshiping God with joyful reverence that embodies Biblical principles

By Gathering and Perfecting the Saints

• seeking to grow in holiness and reach the lost through the Gospel

Through the Ordinary Means of Grace

• focusing on the authoritative Word of God in our preaching and teaching;
• emphasizing prayer throughout the church community and in our ministries; and
• faithfully administering the sacraments of Covenant Baptism and the Lord’s Supper

In the Context of Relational Fellowship

• connecting and caring for one another through discipleship and intentional fellowship

Unto Faith, Repentance, and New Obedience

• realizing our fallen condition and the unmerited redemption we have in Christ through faith, we therefore endeavor to daily repent of our sins and pursue new heart obedience in Christ as we await our future rest in eternity with our Savior.
