What We Believe
As Presbyterians, some of the principles articulated during the Protestant Reformation by John Calvin remain the core of our beliefs today. Among these are...

The Priesthood of All Believers

It is everyone’s job–ministers and lay people–to share this Good News with the world. That is why the Presbyterian Church is governed at all levels by a combination of clergy and laity, men and women alike.
 

Justification by Grace through Faith

Our salvation through Jesus is God’s generous gift to us and not the result of our own accomplishments.
 

The Authority of the Scripture

We believe that our knowledge of God and God’s purpose for humanity comes from the Bible, particularly what is revealed in the New Testament through the life of Jesus Christ.
 

The Sovereignty of God

We believe that God is the supreme authority throughout the universe.
 


MissionMorsels

Habitat for Humanity, Millstone Basin Chapter was founded by a group of activists focused around our church in the early 1990's. Since that time they have built a number of homes in East Windsor, Robbinsville and currently in Hightstown. As a chapter of Habitat for Humanity International, the group builds affordable housing involving sweat equity of the selected family, donated materials and construction supplies and volunteer time to allow the family to move in to a decent home without having a large mortgage payment. We have committed to be a major sponsor of the next home to be built. Volunteer workers are needed to assist the building process, at every skill level. Could this be a way for you to discover new talents, new friends and the satisfaction of a job well done?
