Our desire is to be a congregation that loves one another,
serves one another, and bears each other's burdens.
We are grateful for the opportunity that God has given us. We proclaim the good news, that He is gracious and merciful to us, even though we are sinners. We believe the best way to do that is to exalt Christ above all. We want to be a fellowship that equips believers to grow in becoming more like Christ as we trust in God's grace. We want our members to know and love God, and to know God's Plan for their lives.
Our time together is marked by an effort to make the Word of God central to everything we do. We sing songs that glorify Him. We believe that the Bible is "sufficient" for all life, making us complete and equipped for every good work, and so we teach the Word each week in Sunday School, Bible study, we preach it in every service, and we strive to delight in it at home.
