Our Mission Statement 

God has called us in Jesus Christ;

To a life of holiness and worship in which we express our love for Him, 

And to a life of nurture, equipping us to reach out, as the Holy Spirit leads, in evangelistic, spiritual, and social ministries.

To God alone be the glory!

Who are we and what do we believe ...

Powhatan Mennonite Church is a member of the Mennonite Church USA and Virginia Conference of the Mennonite Church.

The Powhatan congregation believes that its purpose is to worship God and expand His Kingdom in the local community and the world..

Mennonites hold many basic doctrines in common with other Christian groups. In relation to the theological issues of the Reformation times, they emphasize the following:

• The Bible as the authoritative Word of God and the New Testament as the pattern of life for the community of believers.

• The sinfulness of man and the necessity of regeneration through accepting Jesus as Savior and Lord.

• The church, the visible body of Christ, practicing believer’s baptism and regarding the elements of the Lord’s Supper as memorial symbols.

• The life of active peacemaking rather than participation in warfare.

• The separation of church and state.

• The life of simplicity and separation from worldly extravagancies.

• The believing community, a refuge of love and mutual aid.

• The daily walk of obedient discipleship, under the leading of the Holy Spirit
