Our purpose and covenant:

We covenant with the Triune Lord, and with one another, to worship our God, disciple each other in His ways, and outreach to this fallen world, all in accordance to God's Holy Word.

Statement of faith:
We strictly hold to such fundamental doctrines as:


1) Trinity - There is only one God who eternally and coequally exists in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

2) Deity of Christ - The Lord Jesus is the only eternally begotten Son of God, who is fully God, fully man, and without sin. He became incarnate, born of the virgin, was crucified, died, and was buried; on the third day, he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty.

3) Sovereignty of God - God created, governs, upholds, and ordains all things for His glory and the good of His people.

4) Authority of Scripture - The Bible alone is the authoritative, inerrant, inspired, and infallible written Word of God and sufficient for all matters of faith and life.

5) Sinfulness of man - Though made in the image of God, mankind is now fallen, dead in sin, and under God's wrath.

6) Christ is Savior - The only way to be justified before God is by Christ's imputed righteousness which is received by grace alone, through faith alone, on account of Christ alone.

7) Covenant of Grace - Christians are no longer under the condemnation of the Law but walk by the Spirit in faith and are called to lives of holiness and good works out of thanksgiving.

8) The Church - Christ calls His people to discipleship and universal fellowship in His Church, His spiritual body on earth, which is made up of local congregations.

9) Ministry of the Word - The public worship of God on the Lord's day is essential, especially by the preaching of the Law and Gospel, and the administration of the sacraments of Baptism and the Lord's Supper.

10) Sanctity of Marriage - God has made mankind either male or female with marriage as a holy estate between only one man and one woman.

11) Heaven & Hell – Upon death, the wicked go to hell and the righteous in Christ go to heaven.

12) Christ's Return - The Lord Jesus will return at the end of the age to raise the dead, pass final judgment on all, and establish the eternal new heavens and new earth.
