We believe...
The Holy Bible is God’s inspired Word and has application to our daily life of service to our creator
.
Salvation is God’s free gift given to us through a faith relationship with Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
We believe that we all have a mission to proclaim the Gospel to the world.We find joy in the Sacraments of Baptism and Holy Communion as Christ touches our lives with His healing presence.
We believe all human life is sacred and is always precious and protected.
Our beliefs are summarized Apostles' Creed...
“I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ His only Son our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit; the holy Christian church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen
