What We Believe:

• God's Holy Name is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
• Jesus Christ is the Son of God, The Messiah our Savior crucified and risen,  and Jesus is our eternal life.
• The Bible is God's Holy Word.
• We receive eternal life in Jesus's grace alone as God's Holy Bible Word teaches.
• The Church is God's people, not any church structure, called to worship and service.
• Preaching is only from God's Holy Bible Word.
• Baptism gathers us into Jesus' Body of Christ  as His Church.
• Holy Communion is Jesus' precious Body & Blood of His forgiveness and eternal life, and is celebrated each  Sunday.
• Partnership is equal between men and women in Jesus' ministries and missions.
• We work with other Christian denominations and other faiths (we are ecumenical).
• The Church as Jesus' people holds the power in His Church structures at the congregation level.
• The Church is Jesus' safe place for all children, women  and men.

What We Do Not Believe:

• We are the only way  to know or understand God.

• We are allowed to judge.
• Our worship style and practices are the only way to worship.
