Mission Statement
Preaching and teaching Jesus Christ, and serving in his name.
From The Pastor
Pastor Tim is married to his Jr. High School sweetheart, Lisa. They are blessed with four children (two of whom are married) and three grandchildren. Oh, and they have a couple of cats too.
Pastor Tim loves family-time, hiking in the North Carolina mountains, and laughing with good friends. He especially enjoys his life-long passion of surfing, but is also into other water sports like scuba, snorkeling, kayaking, and boating. Since he’s a native Floridian from Jacksonville, Pastor Tim is a Jaguars fan (yes, you can pray for him about that!).
Above all, Pastor Tim loves Jesus! His heart’s-desire is to share the good news of hope, love, healing, and grace found in Christ. Making authentic, life-long followers of Christ is the drumbeat of Pastor Tim’s ministry. Reach out and say “hello” to him at troberts@thepinkchurch.org.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
We believe in one eternal God who exists as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Together, our
triune God created, redeemed and sustains the creation. The love of the Father is made
incarnate through the God-man, Jesus, who entered our world to become its Savior.
We believe that it is only through the atoning death of Jesus on the cross, and His
liberating resurrection, that we gain access to the Father, our having been separated by
a spiritually self- focused condition called sin. In the sinless life Jesus live on earth we
see our potential for an abundant life through living obediently before God.
We believe God gives us the provision to live for God through God’s present power in
the Holy Spirit. It is the Spirit that brings regeneration and which sanctifies us for living
the God-centered life. Through the Holy Spirit our lives are made into a new creation.
Out of the Holy Spirit is the Church of Jesus Christ born and empowered for witness.
We believe life apart from God is no life at all; it is, in fact, to choose death. We were
created to live in relationship to a loving, grace-filled, and merciful God. We were
created to live as children of God, which means we belong to the family of God, the
Church. It is in the local congregation that Christians can best discern and live out the
purposes of God for their individual and communal life. The Church is God’s strategy for
continuing God’s mission to redeem a fallen creation. The Church takes its identity from
the triune God of mission, who exists in perfect loving community and who sends the
Church into the world to demonstrate God’s peace, justice, mercy and grace.
We believe the Old and New Testament scriptures are the unique, authoritative and
binding word of God. The Bible is without error in all that it affirms, and the only infallible
rule of faith and practice.
We believe that Jesus Christ will return to consummate the redemption of God’s
creation, and that every person shall stand before the throne of God to account for their
life. We believe that God’s redeemed creation shall dwell with God in the eternal
heavens, and that we shall be transformed in God’s presence for an eternity of worship,
wonder and amazement.
Baptisms
Baptism is the sacramental act of spiritually washing with water, of being sealed in a covenant with Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit, and of commitment to following Christ. We baptize infants and adults in corporate worship with the loving support of the family of faith.
When an adult is baptized, they are making a profession of faith claiming that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior of their life. Baptism is just the beginning of a person’s faith journey. First Presbyterian walks alongside people who make this significant step in their life – helping them grow as followers of Christ.

The covenant of baptism is one of the most significant parts of our worship. In baptism, God claims your child as His own and is at work in the life of your child from the very beginning.
Not only is baptism a special occasion for your family, but it is also a spiritual beginning for your child. In baptism, you are committing to raise your child to know and follow Jesus. As the primary spiritual leader in your child’s life, your confession of faith stands in for your child until the day when your child makes their own decision to follow Jesus as Savior and Lord.
As your faith community, the entire church walks with you in this decision by partnering with you to raise your child to know the stories of Scripture and the ways of a disciple.
We look forward to years of Worship, Sunday School classes, Vacation Bible Schools, Camps, Faith Milestones, Family Mission Trips, and more!
In order to have your infant or child receive the Sacrament of Baptism at least one parent must be a member of The First Presbyterian Church. Once membership has been verified, the Pastoral Administrator will make the preliminary arrangements, including scheduling the date of the baptism. A personal meeting will be scheduled with the Pastor prior to that date.
If you are ready to have your child baptized or to be baptized please contact the church at 954-941-2308
