Why Our Church?

First Presbyterian Church, Villa Rica is a connectional church and part of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). We trace our roots back to the earliest reformers of the faith, Martin Luther, who was the first reformer (sharing his views publicly in 1517), followed by people like Andreas Karlstadt and Philip Melanchthon at Wittenberg.

We tend to think, rightly so, of the Reformers as people who recovered the main doctrines of the gospel and the five solas of the Reformation, but they did so by returning to the original sources. That is our continuous effort, to return to the original sources and meanings of God’s Word, the Bible.

In the context of such strong and traditional protestant roots, we also believe that worship should be a combination of hymns, psalms, and spiritual songs. God is the focus of our worship, and because of that you can trust that you and your family will hear The Truth of the Word of God, rather than man’s opinions or ideas from the latest fads of culture. Here, we seek one thing: God. Come find him with us!

Glorify God

We are most satisfied in God and life when God is most glorified in us. 'So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Cor. 10:31. It is “the glory of God alone,” drives us in every area of life, and we find this call a privilege bestowed on us by the grace of God through our precious Lord.
Believe Biblically

Scripture is the perfect and only standard of spiritual truth, revealing infallibly all that we must believe in order to be saved and all that we must do in order to glorify God. That—no more, no less—is what sola Scriptura means. (John MacAurther) Sola scriptura rejects any original infallible authority other than the Bible.
Love Community

Gather the people to me, that I may let them hear my words, so that they may learn to fear me all the days that they live on the earth, and that they may teach their children so. – Deuteronomy 4:10 This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. John 15:12
Love One Another

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. John 13:34. Abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, ...that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full. Jn 15:9b, 10b, 11a

Our Purpose

OUR VISION

Our congregation exists to worship and glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. We believe that Jesus Christ is alone – Lord and Savior of sinners. Our church proclaims the Gospel of God’s Infallible, Inerrant and inspired Word to all with ears to hear. We preach. teach, disciple, and encourage without apology the Changeless Gospel of God’s Saving Grace; The Faith once and for all delivered to the saints; and Our loving worship is offered in Truth to Our Triune God, for the glory of Christ, by the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit.
CHURCH BUILDING HISTORY

The church was organized as Villa Rica Presbyterian Church in 1855. A white frame building was constructed on Candler Street in 1885 for worship. The building was moved to its current location in 1930 onto property donated by the family of Mr. W. B. Candler, who had served as Clerk of Session from 1888 to 1921. The structure was bricked, and a basement was added for Sunday School rooms. The mahogany pews, pulpit, and the stained glass windows were purchased from Old Wesley Memorial Church in Atlanta when it was torn down. The windows were made from a color formula that has been lost over time, making them irreplaceable antiques. The Candler home, which was situated behind the church building, served the church in many capacities before it was torn down in 1998 and replaced with a new fellowship building.
