About North End Church
Who We Are
At North End Church, our purpose is simple: fear the Lord and walk in all of His ways.
We are a Reformed, gospel-centered church that gathers weekly for corporate singing, preaching, fellowship, and prayer.
We believe salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, according to Scripture alone, for the glory of God alone.
What We Believe
We are joyfully rooted in the historic Christian faith and hold to the following creeds and statements of belief, along with our church covenant.
The Abstract of Principles serves as our confessional standard, affirming key doctrines such as God’s sovereignty, salvation through Christ alone, the ordinances of baptism and the Lord’s Supper, and the final judgment. (Read here →)

Our Leadership
North End is an elder-led and congregationally ruled church.
Elders serve as pastors and shepherds, teaching God’s Word and overseeing the spiritual health of the church. Elders must meet the biblical qualifications in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1.
Deacons serve under the leadership of the elders as faithful servants who meet practical needs in the church, supporting the ministry of the Word by freeing the elders to focus on prayer, preaching, and shepherding. Deacons must meet the biblical qualifications in Acts 6 and 1 Timothy 3.
Members are saints who covenant together to follow Christ, persevere in the faith, gather regularly for worship, and encourage one another in love and good works (Hebrews 10:23–25).
