Reverend, Professor David L Mosoma, the Vice Moderator of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church in South Africa (EPCSA), the Moderator of the EPCSA Tshwane Presbytery and the Minister of the Phelindaba Parish welcomes you to the EPCSA Tshwane Central Church information site. EPCSA Tshwane Central is the extension charge of the Phelindaba Parish of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church in South Africa. In this site you will obtain all information relating to the activities of EPCSA Tshwane Central which include amongst others the Church activities such as the Sunday church services, zonal or cell group meeting (or sessions depending on your preference), the activities of the different church guilds, and the activities that are perfomred by committees and subcommittees of the Church.

Now that you are in the EPCSA Tshwane Central site, we would like you to have access to unlimited information about the EPCSA and that is the reason we have provided as much information available. In this site you will access information that pertains to EPCSA Tshwane Central from our Sunday services to extra mural activities that we host and / or participate in. We will also, where possible and appropriate, provide you with information pertaining to the Phelindaba Parish (in which Tshwane Central is a member of the congregation), the Tshwane Presbytery and the EPCSA Synod information. Updates will be made to this website, as the aim is not to have a EPCSA Tshwane Central site, but to have a broader Evangelical Pesbyterian Church in South Africa (EPCSA) website.

Sermon of Sunday 08 March 2009

Reposition your self … you are an agent of change

Introduction.

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey. He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly.
Then, to everyone's amazement he quieted down.

EPCSA Tshwane Central welcomes you to the year 2009

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be your name,
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done, on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
As we forgive our own debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom,
The power, and the glory are yours, forever.

Amen

The Greatest Commandment

"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind"

This is the great and foremost commandment, and there is a second like it

"You shall love your neighbour as yourself"

The whole Law and Prophets hang on these two commands

Mathew 22:37-40 & Mark 12:28-34

The Apostles' Creed

I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended into hell. On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty.
He will come again to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the dead, and the life everlasting.

Amen.
