Our Founding Principles
Scriptural
The Bible, God’s Word, is the foundational authority in the church. We desire to base our worship and our very lives on its teaching.
Evangelical
We are a Protestant congregation, committed to the doctrine that sinful people can only be made right with God by faith in Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God.
Reformed
We are committed to Reformed theology. Our teaching and preaching reflects the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms, the systematic statement of the Bible’s teaching adopted by our denomination as its doctrinal summary.
Presbyterian
We believe that the form of government appointed by Christ for the church’s well-being is Presbyterian. This means that government in our church is exercised through the ministry of elders who are called by God and recognized by the people.
Our Vision of Ministry
To fulfill our mission as a local expression of Christ’s church, we seek to glorify God and enjoy Him forever as we…
Worship God
Encourage Each Other in the Faith
Proclaim Christ to the World
