”For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
Our Pastor
Rev. Gerald Terry & Beth Brewer
Our pastor and his wife each attended Northeast Christian College in Fredericton when they were younger. Pastor Brewer spent 2 years in Hatfield Point, NB, after spending 9 months in Lahore, Pakistan teaching at New Life Training Centre. His time in Hatfield Point saw him assisting and helping the pastor. In 1988 they assumed the pastorate of the church in Zealand, New Brunswick where they had their first son and continued there for 6 years. They then relocated to Temperance Vale, New Brunswick where they would have 3 more children and serve as the pastor there for 21 years. It was in 2015 that they moved here to St. Stephen and became the pastor at Old Ridge United Pentecostal Church.

What we believe
About the Bible

II Timothy 3:15-17
The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the authority for salvation and Christian living.
About God
READ
Deuteronomy 6:4
Ephesians 4:4-6
Colossians 2:9
I Timothy 3:16
There is one God, who has revealed Himself as our Father, in His Son Jesus Christ, and as the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is God manifested in flesh. He is both God and man.
About Sin & Salvation
READ
Romans 3:23-25; 6:23
Ephesians 2:8-9
Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
About the Gospel
READ
I Corinthians 15:1-4
Acts 2:4, 37-39
Romans 6:3-4
The saving gospel is the good news that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose again. We obey the gospel (II Thessalonians 1:8; I Peter 4:17) by repentance (death to sin), water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ (burial), and the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the initial sign of speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives the utterance (resurrection).
About Christian Living
READ
Mark 12:28-31
II Corinthians 7:1
Hebrews 12:14
I Corinthians 12:8-10
As Christians we are to love God and others. We should live a holy life inwardly and outwardly, and worship God joyfully. The supernatural gifts of the Spirit, including healing, are for the church today.
About the Future
READ
I Thessalonians 4:16-17
Revelation 20:11-15
Jesus Christ is coming again to catch away His church. In the end will be the final resurrection and the final judgment. The righteous will inherit eternal life, and the unrighteous eternal death.
