Sardis Presbyterian Church was established in 1888 and was located on the Brockton Road in the Thyatira Community and served our congregation for 80 years. Under the leadership of Rev. C. C. Fisher, the church was relocated to the present location. Our ground-breaking ceremony was held October 18, 1964 and construction began on October 19, 1964 and was completed April 1965. Rev. Dr. Percy Johnson serves as moderator of Session and Pastor.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
WHAT WE BELIEVE
The Nicene Creed
We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of Heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father; through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven, was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and became truly human. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right had of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
The Apostles’ Creed
We believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; he descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty, from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead. We believe in the Hold Ghost, the holy catholic church; the communion of the saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting.
