ABOUT GOD
We are a Christ-centered church that is dedicated to loving God with all our mind, heart, body, spirit and soul, and to loving our neighbor as ourselves. We believe there is one God, who has revealed Himself as our Father, in His son Jesus Christ, and as the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is God manifested in the flesh. He is both God and man.

ABOUT SIN AND SALVATION
We believe God created Adam and Eve in His image, but they sinned when tempted by Satan. Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Only through God's saving grace and work in Jesus Christ can we be rescued, reconciled and renewed.
