Our mission is to love God and love our neighbor.

The words of Jesus in the Gospels simply state the summary of God’s law for Christians in all ages and in all places. We fulfill this mission as a community of believers. We need one another to follow Christ faithfully because we can hold one another accountable for that which we believe. The reliance of one another teaches our children what it means to love God and be conduits of His grace to those around us.

As an Anglican church we are:

Sacramental

Christ instituted Baptism and the Eucharist as means by which God’s grace perfects our nature.

Liturgical

We follow the form of worship that has been entrusted to us by the historical church.

Missional

We want others to share in the same joy and peace that we have in life with Jesus Christ.

What We Believe

The Old and New Testaments are God’s written word from which we learn the key facts of our apostolic faith.

The Apostle’s Creed sums up what we believe as Christians:

We believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.

We believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit
and born of the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again to judge the living 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.
