About Us
About Us
We are brothers and sisters in Christ, and we meet together at Cranbourne Presbyterian Church. We’d love for you to join us.
At our service...
We read the Bible, pray, and sing.
We hear a sermon that’s based on a particular part of the Bible, and we normally preach through the Bible section by section, so that we hear what God wants us to hear, rather than just picking the bits we want.
After the service, there’s time to hang around and chat over tea and coffee. It’s a great time to share in the life of the community.
Peter Roberts
Pastor
Peter wanted nothing to do with God, but in amazing twist, God changed his mind, saved him, and gave him a new life full of meaning and purpose. He’d love to tell you his story!
Peter is married to Gail, and they have 5 mostly adult children.
He loves working on cars and motorbikes and has built a Mad Max Interceptor replica. He loves showing it off (so just ask!).
We're Presbyterian
We base our belief and practice on the Word of God; the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments of the Bible.
In order to summarise the teaching of the Bible, Presbyterians use the Westminster Confession of Faith as a statement of its key doctrines. The Bible is the supreme standard, and the Confession is the subordinate (secondary) standard.
The Confession of Faith is quite detailed, and explains the Bible’s teaching on God, Creation, the wonder of being human and the awfulness of sin, and the whole work of God in salvation. The Confession is careful to emphasise that this salvation is by the sovereign Grace of God. It also sets out clear positions on living the Christian Life, and worshipping as a part of the Church in society. The Confession ends with a simple statement on the expectation that Christ will one day return.
