Our Vision

To be a gathering of people transformed by the gospel, enjoying life by connecting with Jesus, growing in community, and serving on mission.

Core Beliefs

We believe in one God- Father, Son and Holy Spirit.(John 14:9-26)

We believe in God the Father Almighty, Creator of all things visible and invisible. (Genesis 1 and 2)

We believe in Jesus Christ, God's one and only Son, our one and only Savior, Who was born both fully human and fully divine, conceived of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, lived a sinless life, Who suffered and was crucified, Who died and was buried, and Who rose again bodily from the dead on the third day, Who ascended into Heaven and now sits at the right hand of the Father, and Who will return to earth to judge both the living and the dead .

We believe in the Holy Spirit, who is a personal and active part of the triune God, who indwells every Christian. (John 14:15-18)

We believe in the Bible- God's Holy Word. We believe God inspired the original writings of the Scripture, and therefore the Bible is completely trustworthy in all its parts. We accept the Bible as the final authority for all matters of faith and practice. (II Timothy 3:16)

We believe that people created by God willfully sin against God and are consequently lost and without hope apart from Jesus Christ. (Romans 3:23)

We believe that salvation- the forgiveness of sins- cannot be earned but is given to us by God's grace only through the blood of Jesus Christ. (Romans 6:23)

We believe that we must respond to God in faith, believing and confessing the truth about Jesus, repenting of sin, trusting Jesus as Savior and Lord, being baptized into Christ, and following Christ in obedience. (Romans 1)

We believe in the church of Jesus Christ, consisting of all Christians everywhere. (Acts 1, John 3:16, II Peter 3:9, Matthew 10:32-33, Acts 2:38,42)

We believe in the church's mission: making disciples of all nations, baptizing them and teaching them to obey all of Jesus' commands. (Matthew 28:19-20)

We believe that those who have put their trust in Jesus Christ will spend eternity with Him.

We are an independent congregation and do not belong to any denomination. We are the body of Christ's church, and only that.
