Welcome to new covenant

New Covenant Presbyterian Church is affiliated with the Orthodox Presbyterian Church (OPC).  We believe that God is sufficient for all of life's needs.  We claim it, we depend on it, we trust in it, and we thrive under it.  His Word and His Spirit are the precious bonds that hold us together.  We hope you visit with us soon and get to know us better.

  • reformation celebration:

    presbyterianism & the civil war

    Lord’s Day evenings in October

                                    Dr. David G. Barker                

    One of the saddest times in the history of the United States was the war of the 19th century among our own people.  While people still debate over the real, motivating issues, the practice of slavery in the South was most prominent.  How did the Presbyterian Church handle that?  And what role did belief in the Bible play in the passions and stands that the differing sides take?




  • Biblical Theology Workshop for women

            Facilitated by Janet B.

    Saturday, September 7 (9:00 AM – 2:00 PM)


    Our aim will be to increase our Bible skills so that rather than being bored by, or intimidated by the Bible, we’ll become more intrigued by it, moved by it, more confident that we’re grasping what it is communicating to us.  Over three video sessions, Nancy Guthrie will demonstrate how a growing understanding of major biblical themes adds to our understanding of the Bible and it message of Redemption.   The three sessions will be energetic, interactive, and fun. It will also prepare us for our upcoming Ladies Bible Study - Better Than Eden by Nancy Guthrie.   Contact the CHURCH OFFICE for more information.
