We believe in the Triune God - God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit; one God in three persons.
We believe that we are saved by God's grace through faith. God's grace is a free gift given in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We can do nothing to earn God's favor or love. He will never love us less and cannot love us more.
We believe that the Bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of God. Historically accurate and true, it is the only source and norm of Christian doctrine.
We believe that through the waters of Baptism, God comes to us to adopt us as His children. This gift is for all people - infants, children, and adults.
We believe that through the Lord's Supper, Jesus, as He says , is truly (not symbolically) present in the bread and wine. Through participation in this miraculous meal, we are spiritually fed while confessing that the beliefs of this church body are ours as well.
We believe in and anticipate the return of Jesus Christ. Though we don't know the day or the hour, we live with the urgency of sharing the message of Jesus with all people.
