We are a family of believers dedicated to worshiping God, serving its neighbors, lovingly sharing God's grace, enjoying each other, and growing people into devoted followers of Jesus.
We believe in the Apostle's Creed and use it in our worship.
" I believe in God, Creator of Heaven and earth;
and in Jesus Christ, His son Our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended into Hell; the third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into Heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting.
Amen. "
We believe that the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms describes the main teachings of the Bible accurately.
