Our church is a member congregation in the
Presbyterian Church U.S.A.
The
largest Presbyterian Denomination in the United States. The
Presbyterian Church U.S.A. has approximately 2.5 million
members, 11,000 congregations and 21,000 ordained ministers.
Presbyterians trace their history to the 16th century and the
Protestant Reformation. Our heritage, and much of what we
believe, began with the French lawyer John Calvin (1509-1564),
whose writings crystallized much of the Reformed thinking that
came before him. For more about the PC(U.S.A.) please click

- There are two regional governing bodies with whom we are
connected in our Denomination. These two bodies, our synod and
our presbytery, help us to work in partnership with other
Presbyterian congregations to carry our mission and ministry.
- Our synod is Synod of the Mid-Atlantic (www.synatlantic.org).
The synod is a large geographic area that contains 14
presbyteries.
- Presbytery of Coastal Carolina
(www.presbycc.org),
the southern most presbytery in our synod. The Presbytery of
Coastal Carolina includes the counties of Bladen, Brunswick,
Carteret, Columbus, Cumberland, Duplin, Harnett, Hoke,
Jones, Lee, Moore, New Hanover, Onslow, Pender, Robeson,
Sampson, Scotland and portions of Lenoir, Wayne and Craven
counties. It has approximately 190 member churches. These
churches, working together through the presbytery, run two
camp and conference centers in addition to sharing in many
other mission endeavors.
