Tchula Presbyterian Church.

Tchula Presbyterian Church (Est. 1923) is a congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America located in the delta of the state of Mississippi.

We are an Old School Presbyterian Church, and thus we are committed to the Bible, God’s inerrant and infallible Word, as the supreme rule of faith and life. Because of this, we take the public worship of the saints very seriously. Worship is to be ordered according to God’s instructions, and not according to our imaginations or traditions or in any way God has not prescribed for us. This formulation is sometimes referred to as the Regulative Principle of Worship, which refers to the idea that our worship is entirely regulated and ruled by the teaching of Scripture. This means our worship is neither “contemporary” nor “traditional” but simple and biblical.

We view the faithful preaching (and hearing) of His Word, right administration (and partaking) of the sacraments, and prayer as essential to growth and sanctification in the Christian life. While other churches question the Bible’s authority or look to another source of truth for guidance or downplay the ministry of the Word, we remain deliberately committed to expository preaching and teaching of the Word of God. And while some churches are abandoning or “updating” the gospel, we are purposely proclaiming “the faith once-delivered” that we are great sinners in need of saving and “God saves sinners.”

We are committed to the Reformed faith, as set forth in the historic Westminster Confession of Faith, Larger Catechism, and Shorter Catechism. This is the best known of the seventeenth-century Protestant statements of faith and has been heralded as the finest Christian confession of faith ever composed by uninspired men.

We aim to be what God calls His people to be: a family - naturally and practically caring for one another and discipling one another in the good times and the bad. Our goal, then, is to be a loving community of believers in Christ, truly committed to one another, who live out an unforced and unprogramed discipleship and witness.

Finally, like our forbears, we know that the problems of today admit of no human solution. We believe that the only hope for the world is in the Spiritual regeneration of souls wrought by God through Jesus Christ, and so we fervently pray for God-sent revival in our lives, our church, our town and our land.
