Unity in the Midst of Diversity

Believing that diversity is one of our greatest strengths, our congregation is a group of people who take each other seriously. We respect one another's feelings, faith, and religious experience. This is the basis of our unity and our commitment to mutual spiritual growth.

Westminster is truly a "doorway" to the world. With our commitment to local and world mission, we are able to interact directly and meaningfully with areas of need within our own community and around the world. Opportunities for individuals to express their faith in service and ministry are available at many different levels. We think you will find that Westminster people typically are involved, dedicated, and fulfilled. We understand that there are as many different needs as there are people. We therefore seek to provide one another with the support of prayer, encouragement, and training as we seek to fulfill our call and commission as Disciples of Christ.

At Westminster Presbyterian Church, we celebrate the diverse gifts and interests within the congregation and our common faith in one God, one baptism, and one Lord the Savior, Jesus Christ.

Statement of Mission:

Because Christ has accepted us unconditionally, Westminster Presbyterian Church, a diverse community of believers, gathered around a common faith, seeks to proclaim by word and by deed the sovereignty of God over all creation and the Lordship of Jesus Christ in every realm of life, striving to demonstrate within our fellowship, toward our neighborhood, across the nation, and around the world, the concrete, embracing, saving love of God.

Therefore, we commit our common life to the Great Ends of the Church:

• The proclamation of the Gospel for the salvation of humankind
• The shelter, nurture, and spiritual fellowship of the children of God
• The maintenance of divine worship
• The preservation of truth
• The promotion of social justice
• The exhibition of the kingdom of God.
