Ministering to Southeast Kansas and Beyond through Missions,
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God and inerrant in the original writings. We believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His mir
acles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory. We believe that the lost and sinful man must be saved, and that man's only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. We believe in and practice the holy ordinance of water baptism by complete emersion, which signifies the believer's death, burial, and resurrection into new life with Christ Jesus, and the practice of Holy Communion as commanded by our Lord for all members present. We also live upon the beliefs and teachings of missionary work. We feel the whole world around us is our mission field. We also feel, as Christians, that we are all called to spread His word and be soul-winners.
