Covenant We believe in God the Father, our Creator; in Jesus Christ, His Son, our risen Lord and Savior; and in the Holy Spirit, alive and at work in the world today. We seek to know the Will of God as taught in the Holy Scriptures and revealed to us in prayer. We believe in the Holy Scriptures as the Word of God and the only perfect rule for faith, doctrine, and conduct. The Word of God is "spirit and life" and therefore requires of us a spiritual and living response. This response involves a commitment to the person of Jesus Christ and a dedication to follow him as Lord. Our church recognizes but transcends theological differences through sharing a common life in Christ. We hold to and observe the sacraments of Baptism and the Lord's Supper. We believe in the Gospel for the whole person and the whole world. The importance of our working and growing together toward that wholeness in Christ takes expression in our worship, stewardship, fellowship, evangelism, Christian education, and ministry to others. We welcome into membership all who confess Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. |

The Apostles' Creed
We believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord: who was conceived by Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell; the third day He rose from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
