About Us

Our Vision

We are a growing worshipping community of believers in Jesus Christ, preparing one another to share Christ’s love, grace, truth, and gospel with the world.

Our Mission

To lead people into a growing relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ and strengthen the local church.

What We Believe

The Scriptures

The Scriptures, both the Old and New Testaments, are the Holy Word of God upon which the Body of Christ must rely for accuracy and authenticity.  We accept the Bible as the revealed will of God, as the all-sufficient rule of faith and standard for daily living (2 Timothy 3:15-17; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21).

The One True God

The one true God has revealed Himself as the "I Am," the Creator and Redeemer of humanity. We believe God eternally exists in three persons called the Trinity: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus), and God the Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1; Isaiah 43:10-11; Ephesians 4:5-6).

The Divinity of Jesus

The Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God.  The Scriptures declare His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, death, resurrection, and ascension to the right hand of God (Hebrews 1:3).

The Salvation of Man

Man's only hope is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Salvation is by faith through grace and demonstrated in repentance leading to a relationship with Jesus Christ (John 3:3; Romans 12:13-15; Ephesians 2:8).

Ordinances of the Church

We believe that following faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the new believer is commanded by the Word of God to be baptized in water by total immersion in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We believe in a unique time of communion in the presence of God when the elements of bread and grape juice (representing the body and blood of Jesus Christ) are taken in remembrance of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross (Mark 16:16; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26).

The Baptism of the Holy Spirit

Given at Pentecost, we believe the baptism in the Holy Spirit is the promise of the Father available to all Christians. Jesus sent it after His Ascension to empower the Church to preach the gospel throughout the earth (John 14:15-17; Acts 1:4-8; 2:1-4).

Sanctification

The act of separation from that which is evil and dedicating oneself entirely to God and that which is good, upright, and morally pure (Romans 12:1, 2; Hebrews 12:14; 1 Peter 1:16).

The Good News

The Good News, also knows as the Gospel of Jesus Christ, is that God loves us and has provided as way for us to be saved and united with Him.  Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and through Him we have a clear path to God, the Father.

We were born into a world that has rejected God and is full of sin.  You can see it all around you, and you know it is within you.  Even when you try to be "good", it's not possible to be good enough or clean enough for God.  Nobody, in and of themselves, can be.  Before Jesus came to Earth, God provided ways for people to atone for their sin, such as animal and food sacrifices, to try to get closer to God, but those were temporary solutions.  But God was just preparing us for his ultimate plan:  Jesus.

Long before this world was even made, Jesus existed with God and was one with God.  He is described as the "Son of God".  He was born a physical being on this world over 2,000 years ago, a birth foretold by many scriptures and combining both spiritual and physical natures, and He lived among us for several decades, teaching first-hand many things about God's character and how to live a good life, and healing people both physically and spiritually.  Then when the time was right, God allowed him to be killed -- crucified on a cross meant for society's worst offenders.  This death was intended as the ultimate sacrifice, far better and more permanent than any animal or food sacrifice we could ever imagine, doing away with the need for such sacrifices ever again.  But God is more powerful than death, and on the third day Jesus was resurrected back to life, spent a little more time among us, and then returned to God, the Father, leaving us with the Holy Spirit, who is known as our Helper, to guide us throughout our lives.  Because of Jesus' sacrifice for us, we have been adopted into God's family and can be sure of everlasting life with God, by acknowledging and accepting Jesus.

You can know the peace that a relationship with Jesus, through the Holy Spirit, can give you.  We can help you.
