Welcome from Reverend Dr. Jeffrey Jones
‘Ecclesia’. That is the Latin word for congregation. It means that each congregation is more than a simple gathering. It is an event of God’s grace. We believe God has called us together here in Harmony Evangelical Presbyterian Church to know and share His grace in Jesus Christ. Perhaps God is calling you to be part of His church. We would love for you to come and discern your call with us. Only together can we be the Ecclesia of God.
Worship
"But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah,
who are too little to be among the clans of Judah,
from you shall come forth from for me
one who is to be ruler in Israel, whose coming forth
is from of old, from ancient days."
We look towards Bethlehem not Washington for our ruler.
