Our Mission Statement
We are God's children. We are called to bear witness to God's love through the worship of God and our outreach to others both in and beyond our community. Our vision is to grow by inviting people into the Christian community and by offering opportunities for nurture in faith and discipleship. We are guided by Scripture, the Holy Spirit, and Christ in the midst of our fellowship.
If you are here seeking our Lord, Jesus Christ, you will find Him – in the songs we sing, in the scripture we read and in the words we preach. By the Spirit we welcome any to join us in Christian fellowship, worship and service to all of God’s creation, within these walls and without. We aim to educate ourselves and our children in the Truth of God, the Life that is Jesus and the Way the Spirit leads us.
