GOD WANTS TO DO GREAT THINGS THROUGH YOU!
ABOUT ADVENT PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
All that we do at Advent Presbyterian Church is guided by our mission which is: to make disciples who worship God, grow spiritually, and share the Good News of Jesus. Disciples are people who know, love, and follow Jesus. We “make” disciples by sharing God’s love with others, telling them about Jesus, and inviting them to follow him. We also “make” disciples by growing and maturing in our faith in Jesus through worship, spiritual growth, and sharing the Good News.
When you come to our church, you will be warmly welcomed and greeted with smiles. The worship service will help you encounter God through hymns, scripture readings, prayers, and a Bible-based sermon that will help you to grow in your faith and live it out all week long. And you will learn about other opportunities besides Sunday morning worship for growing as a disciple of Jesus. After the service, stay and enjoy good food, coffee, and fellowship. And when you come back again, we will remember you and greet you by name!
If you are looking for a church home where you and your family will be helped and encouraged to grow as a follower of Jesus, come check us out!
GOD
Presbyterian churches trace their roots back to John Calvin, the leader of the Reformed branch of the Protestant Reformation. Calvin’s followers in Scotland later established the Presbyterian church. The word Presbyterian is derived from the Greek word meaning “elder” and refers to how the church is governed which is by a group of elected elders.
Presbyterians are in full agreement with other theologically “orthodox” Christian denominations such Baptist, Methodist, Lutheran, Roman Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox churches on the essential tenets of the Christian faith as expressed in the historic confessions of the church like the Apostles’ and Nicene Creeds. Presbyterian distinctives include an emphasis on God’s sovereignty (i.e. God’s rule and control over all Creation), God’s providence (i.e. his sustaining care and provision for all of Creation, and human beings in particular), human sinfulness (which results in broken relationships between us and God, ourselves, other people, and God’s creation), salvation by grace alone through faith alone (as opposed to works) in Christ alone, the work of the Holy Spirit to empower us to become more like Jesus and to share Jesus with others in our words and actions.

OUR TEAM
SEAN WALKER
Pastor
I’m thrilled to be the pastor here at Advent because the people truly love God and are committed to living out their faith in Christ and sharing his love with others.
My goal is to help everyone at the church to grow in their relationship with Jesus so that his love, his joy, and his peace will fill them and overflow into the lives of those around them. If you visit us, my prayer is that you will leave with a deeper sense of how special and precious you are in God’s eyes, and how radically he loves you.
NAN PRICE

I am so blessed to be part of the family at APC. The members of this congregation are truly a family who love and care for each other. The amount of love that is put into the community outreach projects is amazing and I look forward to many, many years of growing together in Christ's love.
