| Tolerant: Regardless of your religious past, we will respect your ideas and beliefs. | |
| Practical: Our minister preaches Bible-based sermons that relate to everyday life. | |
| Accepting: We recognize there is more than just one path for your faith journey and that we benefit from the insights of one another. | |
| Caring: We're large enough to enable spiritual growth of individuals but still small enough to know you individually. | |
| Concerned About Youth: We have many programs and opportunities for children of all ages - from toddlers through high school. We encourage youth to apply Biblical learning to their daily lives. | |
| Reaching Out: We seek justice for humans here and abroad and provide relief where we can be of help. We are involved directly in such outreach activities as The Network of Community Ministries, The Hunger Pantry, and Habitat for Humanity. |
…that Jesus the Christ is the Son of God and the Savior of all humanity
…the New Testament, particularly the life and teachings of Jesus, forms the basis of our Christian thought and action
.…that the Church includes all who place their faith in God and accept Jesus as the Christ of God.
…in the principle of self-government for each congregation with Regional and General (National) bodies serving in an advisory capacity.
…in the clergy’s freedom of the pulpit, and the right of the local congregation to select its own ministers.
…in the observance of the Lord’s Supper, or Holy Communion, every Sunday and we welcome all Christians to participate
…in the fellowship of all Christians in worship, study, mission and service and both the need and the mandate to seek fellowship among all followers of the Christ.
…that each individual has access to God without the necessity of priest or minister to serve as intermediary. Each person can approach God directly, expressing praise and adoration and seeking forgiveness. This conviction is called “the priesthood of all believers.”
…that each person is sacred in God’s eyes, and that each has a personal responsibility to serve and to minister when and where there is opportunity to do so.
…that the clergy, recognized as that part of the laity set aside for specific duties within the Christian fellowship is expected to maintain a high standard of education, conduct & worship.
…in the unity of all Christians, which today finds expressions in the ecumenical movement, and in local co-operation among denominations and congregations.
…that the will of God has never been more clearly, more fully expressed than in the life and teachings of Jesus as the Christ and that all people are accepted and called by him to be his disciples.
…that the Church is the body of Christ called to continue his ministry and that through Christ’s church our lives, our homes, our community, our nation and our world are strengthened and given new hope.
