We are a people of FAITH
As members of the Christian Church, we confess that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God, and proclaim him Lord and Savior of the world. This statement from the Preamble to The Design of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) is the foundation of all that we believe, are, and do in church. We are a people of COMMUNITY
The New Testament portrays the church a
s an exercise in community, focused on our connectedness and interdependence one to another. Our members come from a wide variety of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives, but find in church a bridge across the divide of those differences to join together in a unity of love, bound by common belief and shared practice. We are a people of SERVICE
In order to follow Christ, we are called to a ministry of compassion, intercession, and self-giving service on behalf of the well-being of others. We often repeat a phrase that is not simply a slogan, but is rooted in a sincere desire to be “a church of service, not lip service”, as we seek to lend our hands to demonstrate the love of God in action.
