What do Presbyterians believe?

Presbyterians Do Mission in Partnership (English)

The practice of partnership guides our whole connectional church. It guides us individually as members, officers and pastors. It guides us collectively as congregations, presbyteries, synods, General Assembly ministries and related institutions.
