What We Believe
We believe that all persons have sinned against God because of their nature and therefore, need redemption. Through the death, burial, and resurrection of JESUS CHRIST, we believe all persons have an opportunity to receive eternal life by simply believing and confessing that Jesus therefore is Lord. (Romans 10:9).
Our beliefs can be best summarized in the "Apostle's Creed."I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended to heaven, seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty. From there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the universal church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting.
