Our Vision Statement
The Vision of First Presbyterian Church, as an extension of God’s Kingdom, is to “make the Word of God fully known…that we may present everyone mature in Christ.” (Colossians 1:25; 28)
Our Mission
To “make the word of God fully known…that we may present everyone mature in Christ” we will:
- Provide spiritually meaningful worship and preaching (Worship)
- Cultivate a deeper experience of community as members of One Body (Fellowship)
- Foster children, youth, and adult discipleship opportunities through Christian relationships (Discipleship)
- Utilize and enhance the gifts and talents of members and staff, in order to share Jesus’ love (Ministry)
- Serve locally and globally as an evangelizing and prayerful congregation (Evangelism/Mission)
In each of these endeavors we will be guided by the authority of the Bible, and be empowered by the Holy Spirit.
Location
We are located in the downtown area of Waynesboro, on the corner of 11th Street and Wayne Ave.
A Note From Our Pastor
We read in James 5:16 ‘. . . pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.’ It is my hope that, as you enjoy getting acquainted with other First Presbyterian family members through this pictorial directory, you will pray specifically for one another.
It is my prayer that each one of us will live out our vision as a congregation, which states: ‘As an extension of God’s Kingdom, we will make the Word of God fully known . . . that we may present everyone mature in Christ.’ In order to be effective in living out this vision, we must be people of deep prayer and commitment. May God continue to challenge us to mature in our relationship with him and with one another, and may God bless us as a family, bound together by his love – and use us to be a blessing in this community and to the ends of the earth!
In Christian love,
Pastor Glen
