Mission

How will we build a community of people in the Clemmons area who enter, rest, and grow in the life of Jesus?

  1. by inviting people into a transformative grace-centered community

  3. by being rooted in the Presbyterian tradition

  4. by heeding the Great Commission to live on mission together in word and deed

You can distill this mission further in the following way: For the glory of God and the good of the Clemmons community, we desire to be a…

grace-centered

Flourishing life happens when we experience the steadfast love of God shown to us in Jesus Christ. The good news of Jesus opens our hearts to understand the depths of our sin and the overwhelming love God has for us. As Pastor Jack Miller once said: “Cheer up! You’re a worse sinner than you ever dared imagine, and you’re more loved than you ever dared hope.” Because Jesus has provided freedom from sin and death by his life, death, and resurrection, we can rest in God’s love for us while we seek to live in obedience. The Scripture truths of Justification (because of Jesus, I am righteous in God’s sight - Philippians 3:9; Romans 8:1), Sanctification (because of Jesus, I am free from sin’s power and empowered to fight sin in my heart - Romans 6:4), and Adoption (because of Jesus, I am a beloved child of God - 1 John 3:1) are central truths we seek to proclaim and embody.

relational

The broken world we live in leads us to loneliness, isolation, and shame, but God’s grace brings us into his family where we are known, belong, and open. In a grace-centered community, we can be honest about our sins and struggles and move toward one another in repentance and forgiveness. This is the bedrock for a flourishing community. We strive to be a place where people are known, and know others deeply. This is why we promote Small Groups in the life of our church — we want to create structures for people to belong. This also means we endeavor to be outward facing, extending hospitality to and inviting others into this grace-centered community. (Genesis 2:18; Leviticus 19:18; Acts 2:42-47; Gal. 6:2; James 5:16).

Presbyterian church

Jesus has been building his Church for thousands of years; we are grateful to be a part of this grand story! As such, every Christian church has roots somewhere. As a member of the Presbyterian Church in America, our roots are Presbyterian, which comes from the 16th century Protestant Reformation. Presbyterians emphasize the centrality and authority of the Bible, preaching, prayer, singing praises, the Sacraments, and Christian fellowship. We call these the “ordinary means of grace” because they are what God has given us to experience and grow in his grace. We are thankful for this rich legacy and thrilled to complement the other Christian churches in our community. This does not mean we desire to be the Reformed or Presbyterian “club” in Clemmons. It simply means we acknowledge our roots.

Beliefs: The PCA holds to the historic orthodox creeds we share with the global Christian Church (Apostles’, Nicene, & Athanasian), the Westminster Standards of the Protestant Reformation (Westminster Confession, Larger & Shorter Catechisms), and is governed by the PCA Book of Church Order. Our regional oversight is the Piedmont Triad Presbytery which includes our sister churches in Winston-Salem, Lewisville, King, Kernersville, Greensboro, High Point, Burlington and the RUF ministry at Wake Forest University.

on mission

The grace of God sends us out on mission! God calls and empowers us by the Holy Spirit to love our neighbors and to make disciples. We will love our neighbors in “word” by sharing the hope we have in Jesus, and in “deed” by finding ways to extend mercy to those in need and caring for our town. We will follow the call of Jesus’ Great Commission (Matt. 28:19-20) by investing our time and talents in missions and mercy. (Ex. 19:5–6; Jer. 29:4–11; Matt. 22:34-40, 28:19–20; Romans 10:10-17; 1 Thess. 4:9–12; 1 Pet. 2:9).
