Welcome to Covenant Presbyterian Church!
A Congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America
(PCA)
Greetings in the name of the great Head and King of the Church, our Lord Jesus Christ!
What is Covenant Presbyterian Church all about?
Covenant Presbyterian Church exists to glorify God and to enjoy Him in and with the
communion of His saints.
As such, we are catholic, meaning we happily adhere to the ancient creeds of the
church concerning the Triune God and the person of Jesus Christ.
We are also reformed, meaning we heartily embrace the achievements of the Protestant
Reformation in recovering the gospel in its apostolic purity. In particular, we stand in the
stream of the Reformation that became known as the Reformed tradition under the
tutelage of Ulrich Zwingli, John Calvin and many others. We affirm the Reformation’s
teaching that Scripture alone is the church’s final authority for faith and life. We believe,
on the authority of Scripture, that we are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, by
Christ alone, all for the glory of God!
At Covenant, being reformed entails embracing a unique and robust world and life view
which ranges from the church and her polity, to worship and the sacraments, from the
Christian life to civil government, and much more. The best introduction to this
comprehensive vision of the reformed faith would be to simply read our doctrinal
standards; the Westminster Confession of Faith and the Shorter and Larger Catechisms.
Finally, we are evangelical, in that we seek to proclaim the glorious gospel of our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ to our neighbors and to vigorously support its proclamation
throughout the whole world. It is by the gospel of grace that we seek to live, and it is the
gospel’s implications we seek to apply to all of life.
            We invite you to join us!
            Sincerely in Christ,
            Rev. Kevin Chiarot
