our mission and belief
We are called to be a church beyond walls:
STRENGTHENING our faith, sharing the gospel, & serving and loving our neighbor.
“ … Because God truly loves us in spite of our willful sin, God judges us, summons us to repentance, pardons us, receives us by that grace given to us in Jesus Christ, and gives us hope of life eternal.”
Called to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world, we are a church beyond walls, strengthening our faith; sharing the gospel; serving and loving our neighbors.
With Christians of other communions we confess belief in the triune God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This confession embraces the biblical witness to God’s activity in creation, encompasses God’s gracious self-involvement in the dramas of history, and anticipates the consummation of God’s reign.
The created order is designed for the well-being of all creatures and as the place of human dwelling in covenant with God. As sinful creatures, however, we have broken that covenant, become estranged from God, wounded ourselves and one another, and wreaked havoc throughout the natural order. We stand in need of redemption.
