A Zeal for Jesus Christ

Who We Are

Heritage is a member church of the Potomac Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). Heritage Presbyterian has a zeal for the proclamation of the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ. We are committed to vibrant biblical worship, deep discipleship through the preaching and teaching of the Scriptures, warm fellowship, and sharing the Gospel through personal and corporate outreach.

What We Believe

For those who are familiar with “The Presbyterian Church”, note that the PCA is not affiliated with the mainline Presbyterian denomination known as the Presbyterian Church (USA).

CORE VALUES

Worship & Prayer

“Worship is our “chief end”—it is what we were made for, it is what we will do into eternity, it is our greatest privilege and highest duty (Acts 17:26-28; Rom 12:1; Rev 4:11). Although we must live every day before the face of God with a heart full of worship, God’s people are particularly called to corporate worship each Lord’s Day, when we are united with the saints throughout the ages in the presence of God (Exod 20:8-11; Heb 10:23-25).
