Our beliefs are rooted in three historic Christian Creeds: the Apostles' Creed, the Nicene Creed, and the Athanasian Creed. 

​

WE BELIEVE IN ONE GOD, THE FATHER, THE ALMIGHTY, MAKER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH, OF ALL THAT IS, SEEN AND UNSEEN.

‍

  • ‍We believe in one God who created all things.

  • We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that Jesus, while fully God took upon himself full humanity.

  • We believe in Jesus’ death and literal, physical resurrection from the dead and hold Easter to be the foundational truth upon which the Church is built.

  • We believe that the Holy Spirit proceeds from God and is the third person of the Trinity, sent to humanity as the revealer of God’s will.‌

  • We believe that the Holy Scriptures are the Word of God and contain all things necessary for salvation.

  • We believe that God calls us to be continual examples of Christian love and behavior, and still, God forgives us when we fall short of the mark. We love because God loved us first.

 

We worship corporately every Sunday and often on weekdays. The Holy Eucharist is our chief worship service, at which we recall Christ’s atoning death, physical resurrection, and continuing presence with us in the common meal, also known as Communion or the Lord’s Supper. All persons baptized with water in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are welcome to join us at the Lord’s Table to receive this sacrament.

Our worship is based upon the Bible, the Word of God, which is proclaimed publicly at every worship service. We use the Book of Common Prayer 1979. In so doing, we share a common bond with our Anglican brothers and sisters whenever and wherever we worship. 

We are committed to carrying God’s message of love and redemption into a sinful, broken, and hurting world, always remembering that God's Kingdom is in our midst in Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit.

‍

We recognize two sacraments:

  • Holy Baptism

  • Holy Eucharist

And five sacramental rites:

  • Confirmation

  • Ordination

  • Holy Matrimony

  • Reconciliation of a Penitent

  • Unction of the Sick
