Who We Are

Together we are sparked by the Spirit's grace to transform
the body of Christ for the good
of God's world

Our mission and values are key to our identity​​

Valuing kinship and working to build strong relationships with one another and partners all around.

​

Continually reformed and transformed by the surprising, inspiring work of the Spirit while engaging in shared mission. 

​

Gathering in for renewal and equipping, sending out to enjoy and be active in God's world.

Our churches, elders and members inform our identity

Our congregations planted throughout Delaware and the Eastern Shore of Maryland experience kinship, innovation and the movement of the Spirit gathering us in and sending us out. 

​

Ruling Elders and Deacons who provide leadership and care, along with the members who engage in faithful worship and work, are central to who we are as New Castle Presbytery.

Pastoral Leaders shape our identity

Commissioned Ruling Elders and Minister members (temporary or installed pastors, at-large, validated and retired) provide support and guidance in our life together.
