What we believe about:

 

God

There is only one true God who is the creator and sustainer of all things. He loves each one of us and desires to have a personal relationship with us.

​ 

Jesus

Jesus Christ was God in the flesh. Through his teaching, miracles and bodily resurrection, Jesus proved his claim to be God. His death on the cross is full payment for our sins.

 

Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is God’s presence in the life of those who have accepted Jesus Christ as Savior. The Holy Spirit empowers us to live the abundant life that Jesus promised.

 

Bible

The Bible is God’s revealed word, without error, written by men who were guided by His Spirit. We know that the Bibles we possess are trustworthy.

People

Our basic problem is not political, economical or financial, but our need for a relationship with God. We were created to know God but our sins get in the way. God has provided a way for this relationship to be restored through Jesus Christ. Each one of us needs to accept through faith Christ’s sacrifice for our sins. This response requires believing in Jesus Christ, turning from our sins, acknowledging Him as Lord, and being immersed in Christian baptism.


“For it is by Grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not of yourself,

it is the gift of God-not by works, so no one can boast” Ephesians 2:8-9

 

What we practice as a Church:


The purpose of the Church is summarized in two key scriptures:

The Great Commandment: “Jesus said,‘Love t​he Lord your God with all your heart...soul...and mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and Prophets hang on these two commandments.’”

Matthew 22:36-40

The Great Commission: “Jesus said, ‘Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.’” Matthew 28:19-20
