STATEMENT OF FAITH 

We Believe 

In One God: Creator, Redeemer and Sus-tainer, who provides order, purpose, meaning and fulfillment to all creation. 
That in Jesus Christ God became human and is Sovereign Lord of life and history. 
That in the Holy Spirit God is present in the world, empowering and guiding believers to understand and live out their faith in Jesus Christ. 

We Believe 

That persons are created in the image of God and destined to live in community with God, with other persons and with all creation; 
That, by disobedience, they have become sinful, but, by grace through faith, they are redeemed in Jesus Christ; 
That being entrusted with God's creation, they are called to participate in the establishment of a just and compassionate social order. 

We Believe 

In the Church, the one body of Jesus Christ, the whole community of those reconciled to God through Jesus Christ and entrusted with God's ministry. 

We Believe 

In the Holy Bible as a faithful and inspired witness to God's self-revelation in Jesus Christ and in history -  
- to illumine, guide, correct and edify believers in their faith and witness. 

We Believe 

That God seeks to make each person a new being in Christ, and is at work in the whole world, God's kingdom in which love, justice and peace prevail. 
That the Kingdom of God is already present 
where faith in Jesus Christ is shared, 
where food is given to the hungry, 
where healing is given to the sick, 
where light is given to the blind 
and where liberty is given to the captive and oppressed., 

We Believe 

That the resurrection of Jesus Christ has overcome the power of death and gives assurance of life eternal after death. 
And we look forward to His coming again in all fullness and glory and to gather all the faithful into the Kingdom of God 

Amen.
