OUR CONFESSION OF FAITH
​

Picture
We confess the Triune God – the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and the Gospel as the power of God for the salvation of all who believe.

We accept the Old and New Testaments as the inspired Word of God and the authoritative source and norm of our proclamation, faith, and life. 

We are a Body gathered and created by God in Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit, called and sent to bear witness to God's creative, redeeming, and sanctifying activity in the world.
