Guided by the Holy Spirit, we are united in covenant with God to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ through our worship and our demonstrated love and concern for others.
We seek to meet the spiritual, social, and other needs of our congregation as well as those of the local and world-wide community.
We are eager to embrace opportunities for continuing and adding to our traditions, recognizing that we can best expand our spiritual resources by surrendering to God's will.
Steadfast in our commitment to protect
the freedom of individual interpretation of our faith,
we affirm our covenant and declaration of faith and
our denominational ties to the United Church of Christ.
CHURCH COVENANT
I promise, in the privilege of the fellowship into
which I this day enter, to honor this Church by attending
its services, gratefully contributing to its support
and ministry, generously aiding it in the extension
of the Kingdom of Christ, and at all times and in all
places endeavoring to walk in God's way, as ever made
known to us through the Holy Spirit.
DECLARATION OF FAITH
We believe in the one living and true God, perfect in power, wisdom, and love, revealed to us as our Creator by Jesus Christ, God’s Son.
We believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who in his life, suffering, death, and resurrection manifested God’s love for all, and showed the way of redemption through the repentance for and the forgiveness of sin.
We believe in the continuous presence and leadership of the Spirit of God in the Church and in the world.
We accept the Bible as the supreme revelation of God’s nature and will for us, and as a source of our knowledge of Jesus Christ, the foundation of our faith.
We grant to one another liberty of individual interpretation of the deep mysteries and teachings of the Bible and the Church, only requiring that as members of this church each shall strive to live in the spirit and according to the teachings of Jesus Christ.
We believe in the essential unity of Christendom, and we labor for the fuller realization of the kinship of all people in the worldwide Dominion of God. We affirm that Christ is our Savior, and rejoice that we are all one family.
