Our Purpose:
As the love of Jesus compels us, we strive to grow in genuine appreciation for who God is, what He has done for us, and where He lives - in our hearts (Acts 2:38; I Corinthians 6:19; Colossians 1:27). "Christ in you, The Hope of Glory." We invite you to become a part of this life and work.
Statement of Faith:
We Believe...
that Jesus Christ is the living Son of God and Our Savior that he was
born of a virgin, (Matthew 1:18-25); that He lived a perfect and sinless life
(II Corinthians 5:21); that he voluntarily accepted the Cross (Matthew
26:47-56); that he was crucified, buried, and rose to life again the third
day; that after His resurrection He was seen by His apostles and a group of
over 500 followers (I Corinthians 15:1-8); that He daily intercedes for us (Matthew
26:64; Hebrews 7:25); that He will return for us(Acts 1:6-11).
We Believe...
the Bible alone is our all-sufficient rule of faith and practice, and the
revelation of God's Word and Will.

We Preach...
Jesus Christ and Him crucified. You will hear very little of politics or personal prejudice from this pulpit.
We Believe...
all persons, of all ethnic groups descend from Adam, are created in the
image of God (Genesis 1:26-28; 2:21-25); and need the saving grace of Jesus Christ
(Romans 3:23-24; 6:23).
We Require...
for church membership, what is required in the New Testament, no more, no
less (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 2:36-42).
We Practice...
only the baptism taught and practiced in the scriptures - immersion of a
penitent believer in the symbol of Christ's own death, burial, and resurrection.
