WHAT WE BELIEVE
We are your neighbors. We are an evangelical, Bible believing Lutheran congregation in the community with a sincere
desire to be of spiritual encouragement and blessing to you. We are eager to welcome you to any of our services and activities. You will find a warm fellowship of Christians who believe together that—The
Bible is God's Holy Word and is true (inerrant) in all its parts.God has shown His great love for all people by sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to provide eternal life and salvation.
We are all sinners, in need of forgiveness which Christ provided when He died on the cross alone as our Savior and
Lord. Faith is a gift of God, created and nourished by the Holy Spirit through the Word of God and through the sacraments: Baptism and the Lord's Supper. We can know now that our sins are forgiven,
because we are saved by God's grace in Christ alone.
Every Christian is called by God to a life of faithful obedience and service to Him. In gratitude for God's grace in
Christ, we desire to worship and serve the Lord and seek to be of help to our neighbors.
OUR MISSION STATEMENT
Growing in Grace for the Glory of Jesus
"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To
him be glory both now and forever! Amen." (II Peter 3:18)
Because all that we are and have we owe to God's gracious favor, we desire to glorify Jesus:
· By faithfully praying for the salvation of the lost and the edification of God's
people. · By humbly praising God with a thankful heart. · By consistently devoting ourselves to God's inerrant life-changing Word. ·
By lovingly serving and encouraging one another in the body of Christ. · By earnestly inviting others to come to Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit.
