Become Part of Our Church Family
We'd like to reassure you that you're welcome here. In the body of Christ, we strive for unity. With so many people split over worship styles, generation gaps, and other issues, we simply want to see God move among His people.
As we gather to have an encounter with God week after week, we want to make everyone feel welcome, and our service is a great mix of traditional and contemporary.

Our
Beliefs
The Bible
The Bible was written by men divinely inspired and is God's revelation of Himself to man, without any mixture of error. We believe all Scripture is totally true and trustworthy and serves as a testimony to Christ, who is the focus of divine revelation.
God
We believe there is only one living and true God, Who is all powerful and all knowing; and His perfect knowledge extends to all things, past, present, and future, including the future decisions of His free creatures. God reveals Himself to us as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, each with distinct personal attributes.
God the Father
God the Father is the Creator of all things, reigning over His universe and His creatures perfectly. He is all powerful, all knowing, all loving, and all wise. God is Father to those who become children of God through faith in Jesus Christ.
God the Son
Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. Jesus became a man yet was completely without sin. He offered Himself as a sacrifice for sinful people, making forgiveness for our sins possible by His death on a cross. Three days after He was crucified, Jesus was raised from the dead and appeared to His followers in the flesh. He ascended into heaven and is now with God the Father, mediating for us as both fully God and fully man.
God the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God who enables men to understand truth. He convicts of sin, comforts believers, and guides Christians into developing godly character. The moment a person confesses Jesus Christ as Lord, the Holy Spirit enters that believer and will remain there forever.
Man
Man is the special creation of God, made in God’s own image. In the beginning man was innocent of sin and was given the freedom of choice. By his free choice man sinned against God and brought sin into the human race. Therefore, as soon as a person is capable of moral action, he/she are guilty of sin. Only the grace of God can bring a person back into fellowship with Him, enabling him/her to fulfill the purpose of God.
