God's transforming love is available to all peoples through the cross of Jesus Christ.  God's gracious love is so powerful and persistent that it will transform anyone who turns to Jesus Christ in faith and repentance.

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast." Ephesians 2:8,9 

We believe that all scripture (the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments) is Truth, giving a complete and witness to God's redemptive activity on behalf of humankind.  The Bible is our supreme and final authority on all matters on which it speaks.

We believe in one God, the Sovereign Creator and Sustainer of all things, who exists eternally in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ, the living Word, became flesh through His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit and His virgin birth.  He is totally Divine and totally human, united in one person forever.  His death on the cross was the full and acceptable payment for our sins according to the Scriptures.  He was bodily raised from the dead on the third day and ascended into Heaven, where He now is our High Priest and Mediator.

The Holy Spirit has come to glorify Christ and apply the saving work of Christ to our hearts.  He convicts us of sin and draws us to the Savior.  Indwelling our hearts, He gives new life to us, empowers and imparts gifts to us for service.  He instructs and guides us into all truth, and seals us for the day of redemption.

All humans are estranged from God and condemned by their sinfulness.  Our salvation is totally dependent upon the work of free grace.  God credits His righteousness to those who put their faith in Christ alone for their salvation.  Only those who are born of the Holy Spirit and receive Jesus Christ through faith and repentance become God's children and heirs of eternal life.

The true church consists of all persons who through saving faith in Jesus Christ and the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit are united together in the body of Christ.  The Church finds her visible, yet imperfect, expression in local congregations where the Word of God is preached in its purity and the sacraments are administered in their integrity; where scriptural discipline is practiced, and where loving fellowship is maintained.  For her perfecting, she awaits the return of her Lord.

Jesus will come again to the earth-personally, visibly, and bodily--to judge the living and the dead, and to consummate history and the eternal plan of God.

We stand in the Reformed or Calvinistic heritage of the Christian church, affirming the sovereignty of God and the importance of responding to God in faith and obedience, as explained in the Westminster Confession of Faith.
