Founded on Octorber 12th, 1727 as an ‘old world’ church plant in the ‘new world,’ Old Goshenhoppen stands firmly upon the Word of God. We remain rooted in the historic Heidelberg Catechism of the German Reformed tradition and continue to proclaim the Scriptures unashamedly as heirs of historic protestantism in season and out of season.
Heidelberg Catechism
Lord’s Day 1 • Question 1
Question: What is your only comfort in life and in death?
Answer: That I am not my own, but belong—body and soul, in life and in death—to my faithful Savior Jesus Christ. He has fully paid for all my sins with his precious blood and has set me free from the tyranny of the devil. He also watches over me in such a way that not a hair can fall from my head without the will of my Father in heaven; in fact, all things must work together for my salvation. Because I belong to him, Christ, by his Holy Spirit, assures me of eternal life and makes me wholeheartedly willing and ready from now on to live for him.
