Our Mission Statement

We are believers in the Lord Jesus Christ bonded together in love, proclaiming the Gospel, worshiping, encouraging spiritual growth & serving as witnesses to our community & the world.

What We Believe

WE BELIEVE the basis of our relationship with God is the grace, mercy, and forgiveness shown to us through the death of Jesus Christ on the cross for our sins. Being an authentic Christian means living the life of the Spirit. WE BELIEVE the basis of our fellowship with each other is God’s unconditional love placed in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. We believe that the love of God transcends any differences between us and that we can love those whom God loves.

WE BELIEVE that as believers in Jesus Christ, we are members of God’s universal church and so we embrace the amazing riches of the teachings of historic Christianity based on the revealed Word of God found in the Old and New Testaments. WE BELIEVE that the Bible is the only and one revelation of the heart, mind and will of God for His creation. It is inspired by the Holy Spirit and the one and final authority for life.

WE BELIEVE that we are all sinners and selfish by nature and it is our sin that has separated us from God. This condition of the soul can only be resolved by God’s free gift of forgiveness and new life in Jesus Christ. WE BELIEVE that the historic person known as Jesus Christ is God in human flesh. As true God and true man He allowed himself to be born of a virgin and through His sinless life, He taught men and women how to live. We believe that he was crucified on a cross, buried in a tomb, and was resurrected from the dead. His victory over the grave is our hope of eternal life.

WE BELIEVE that the Holy Spirit persuades us to repent of our sins and confess Jesus Christ as Lord. He lives in us and teaches us. He provides for our growth in grace at every stage of our spiritual journey, enabling us to live a victorious life through His power and presence.

WE BELIEVE that one day Jesus Christ will return again in glory to establish his kingdom forever. WE BELIEVE in the two sacraments instituted by our Lord: Baptism and Communion. They can serve as a means of grace in the life of all believers. The first, water baptism, is a sign of an inward identification with the death, burial and resurrection of Christ. Communion, or, the Lord’s Supper, is a demonstration of our receiving the forgiveness available through the broken body and spilled blood of Jesus Christ.
