What We Believe

From the New Testament, we believe that, as a church, we are called by God to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ, to nurture Christian community and to be Christ’s servant people.

We value worship that provides a meaningful experience of God and the Christian tradition and that expresses the gospel in contemporary language, forms and discernment.

We seek fellowship and Christian education opportunities.

We use the church as a starting place to reach out to our local community and the world through mission work.

We strive to follow Micah 6:8. “…and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?”
