Statement of Faith

We believe in the Trinity. The one true God, God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered and was crucified, died and was buried. The third day Christ rose again from the dead, and ascended into heaven; and in the Holy Spirit, the church, the fellowship of the saints who regularly meet and worship, pray, and study the Bible. We believe in Christ’s forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.

We affirm that God’s way for our salvation is through Jesus Christ, and it is attained by faith alone through God’s grace, that right relationship with God is through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ.

We believe the Bible to be the only revealed, infallible, authoritative, accurate and conclusive Word of God written.

We believe in the Biblical practices of baptism and the Lord’s Supper.

Covenant

We covenant with the Lord and with one another, and do bind ourselves in the presence of God, to walk together in all God’s ways, according to and as God reveals himself to us in God’s blessed Word of Truth.
