“We will not stand alone. We covenant to work alongside each other and to labor alongside our fellow Christians who hold to the Biblical faith in our effort to confront fallen culture and equip struggling churches.
A new website has been launched, seeking to assist evangelicals seeking a call, and to match them with evangelical churches seeking a minister.
“Pastor Call: Someone you can call …” can be found at www.pastorcall.org.
The subscription-based website is designed to give “individuals and groups the confidence that when they find a match, that the person or group found will have the same traditions and that there will be no surprises.”
Geared toward the Presbyterian Church (USA), the Evangelical Presbyterian Church (EPC), ECO: A Covenant Order of Evangelical Presbyterians and the United Church of Christ (UCC), the website states that “in the midst of great transition among these denominations, our hope is to facilitate connections.”
“Our doors are open to assist any and all orthodox reformed conservatives in the PCUSA, EPC, ECO and UCC.”
Membership for the website is $30 for six months for an individual; and $60 for six months for an institution (church or PNC). The fees cover the costs of maintaining the website and payments are made through PayPal.
Members must also agree to the essentials and covenant.
The essentials include:
- “The faith of the universal Church – We affirm the ecumenical creeds of the Church, such as the Nicene Creed and Apostles’ Creed that fix us into the universal, catholic church of which our Reformed churches are a part.
- “The five solas of the Reformation – Scripture alone, grace alone, faith alone, Christ alone and to God alone be the glory shape our understanding of the Gospel.
- “The essential doctrines of Reformed faith – Salvation is wholly of God and is purely grace from first to last, without any merit in us. That God is completely sovereign and preserves all His elect in faith throughout this life and eternally. That the cross is God’s final answer for human sin as a substitutionary atonement for His people. We affirm a Biblical system of polity: with godly, qualified men and women cooperating as pastors, elders and deacons for the government of the church according to the Word of God.
