Mission and Core Beliefs

|
We believe that God calls our church, a body of believers in the gospel of Jesus Christ, to demonstrate God's love in the world. We believe:
- the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are our only canon of infallible authority.
- the Bible is the written word of God which reveals God's mighty acts in the unfolding redemptive history that displays a single plan of salvation in the covenant of grace.
- the Westminster Standards serve as our guiding confession of sin
- corporate and private worship is our highest calling
- prayer is our critical work
- the grace of God in the gospel is the cause of both our salvation and our sanctification
- the biblical community is the context in which people grow spiritually
- outreach locally and abroad is our commission from Christ
We celebrate God's love by moving forward in Christ's work, always being open to His will by:
- actively bringing people to know Christ
- being faithful stewards of God's gifts
- generously using and sharing all that we have
- nurturing faith through inspirational worship, prayer and study of the Bible
- being compassionate to all
- serving humanity in mission to local and global communities
