About us

Who we are, where we come from, and where we're headed as a church family

Who We Are

We are a family of imperfect people who are unrelenting in our desires and efforts to be like Jesus in character and in action – loving God absolutely and loving others sacrificially.  We are committed to this for the benefit of all (in and outside of the church) and, most of all, to the glory of God!

Where We Come From

In the mid 1770’s, over 200 years ago, a group of immigrants from Galloway, Scotland, left their homeland and located in the Town of Perth, County of Fulton, State of New York. These early settlers were the nucleus of what was to be known two centuries later as Perth Bible Church.

Where We're Headed

This church, believing in the Bible as the inspired Word of God, and acknowledging its adherence to all the teachings contained therein, declares its purpose:

Section A. To maintain regular services for both instruction and public worship.
Section B. To proclaim earnestly the Gospel message of salvation through personal faith in Christ’s
finished work and to urge personal acceptance of Christ as Savior.
Section C. To cooperate heartily through prayer, gifts and service, in the effort to preach the Gospel
as a witness to all the world.
Section D. To promote systematic Bible study and training for Christian service, and to encourage
in every possible way life enlistment in some form of definite Christian service.
Section E. To practice true religion and Christian philanthropy (James 1:27) as revealed and taught in the sacred Scriptures.
