Our Statement of Faith

God

We believe there to be one God eternally existing in three person; the Divine parent, the Son and the Holy Spirit. 

The Bible

We believe the Bible to be Divinely inspired and applicable to all aspects of daily life. 

Salvation

We believe in the redemptive work of Christ on the cross, which, for the sins of all humankind, provided healing for the body, spirit, and soul. 

Reconciliation

We believe that God's will through Christ's redemptive work is that all be reconciled and in relationship with God, the creator of heaven and earth. 

The Sacraments

We believe that upon confession of faith in Jesus Christ, one should be baptized fully immersed in water. We also believe that Holy Communion is for all people to partake of and that the table of Jesus Christ is open to everyone.
