About Clayton Presbyterian Church
-
Located in downtown Clayton just behind the Clayton Cafe, Clayton Presbyterian Church lives as a family of faith through Christian worship, study, fellowship, and service, for the glory of God.
Our mission is to live as a family of active faith through Christian worship, study, fellowship, and service, for the glory of God.
Christian worship...is at the center of all that we do! In coming together each Sunday morning, we are nourished by the Word of God and through the gathering of the body of Christ, made up of friends old and new. In worship, we encounter forgiveness and hope; we absorb the challenge and the promise of God's Word; and we leave strengthened, ready to live as Christ's disciples until we come together again.
Study...is an important part of our spiritual growth. Whether learning through engaging, Scripturally-sound sermons, setting aside time for personal Bible study and devotion, or coming together in small groups to study Scripture or learn about spiritual practices, we believe that deepening our faith through learning is worthy of our time, care, and attention.
Fellowship...gives vibrancy to our life together. We take seriously that the church is the Body of Christ. Just as Paul reminded the Corinthians, when we are together, "God's Spirit dwells in us." From sharing snacks and conversation after worship each Sunday, to getting together for dinner and other congregational and community events, we enjoy coming together as a family of faith, and welcoming others into that family.
Service...is fundamental to who we are as Christ's disciples. We seek to be the hands and feet of Jesus to each other, to our community, and to the world. This takes place through hands-on acts of service and caring, as well as by holding special events and fundraisers which allow us to offer financial support to other partner organizations who are faithfully doing God's work.
