The EPC
Our Family Of Churches
We think churches are better together than standing alone . . . a bit like people. As a result, we’re a part of a network of churches known as the Evangelical Presbyterian Church.
“Evangelical” means that we believe God’s love is to be shared with others. God cares about people, and He has the answer for our lives.
“Presbyterian” is a way of organizing the church. We like the idea of a team of people leading the church rather than just one person. “Presbyterian” comes from an ancient Greek word meaning “ruled by elders.” A team of trusted leaders (our pastors and elders) leads the church.
“Church” is actually a word that Jesus coined. It’s a cool concept. It means a group of people who have been called by God to do His work and represent His love to the world. We’re serious about doing God’s work, so church is important to us.
What many people find interesting about KPC is that—though we’re pretty contemporary and creative about how we do things—our roots are in ancient Presbyterian Church. We think that’s a good thing—being anchored in the past while doing our best to be relevant in the present.
Yes, there are several Presbyterian denominations around the country. The EPC is known for its commitment to the trustworthiness of the Bible and to historic Christianity.
