Our Name
"Coldenham-Newburgh" We are a Reformed Presbyterian congregation located in the Coldenham community of Orange County, part of the Hudson River Valley in New York.
"Reformed" We hold to the doctrinal positions of the Protestant Reformation. We subscribe to the Westminster Confession of Faith as well as the Larger and Shorter Catechisms. These documents provide summaries of Biblical teaching.
"Presbyterian" This refers to our form of church government, which comes from the Greek word Presbuteros which means simply "elder." Christ is the only head and King of the church. His rule comes to expression by means of elders as govern on a local, regional and national level.
History
We have been worshipping and serving Christ in this community for over 200 years .
The Coldenham congregation was organized in 1798, and a daughter church was planted in Newburgh in the 1820s. Newburgh merged with Coldenham in 1975.
