A Biblical Church
The Bible is the only source from which all our preaching and teaching flows. Because the Bible is the Word of God, it is truth and the truth does not change.
A Confessional Church
We humbly follow our forefathers in how we talk about and teach the faith. What we believe and teach can be found in the Book of Concord, which we believe to be a correct exposition of the Bible. In terms of Church denominations, we are a congregation of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod (LCMS).
A Sacramental Church
We believe that God is abundantly rich in grace and promises to give us forgiveness for sins and every spiritual blessing where He has promised to meet us—in word, water, bread, and wine. Therefore, we baptize, celebrate the Lord’s Supper and pronounce the forgiveness of Jesus in absolution. The water and the word of Holy Baptism washes away sin, connects us with Jesus’ death and resurrection and brings us into God’s holy family, the Church. In the Lord’s Supper, Jesus gives us His Body and Blood for the forgiveness of our sins and the strengthening our faith.
A Liturgical Church
We follow a historic liturgy grounded in the life of God’s people reaching back all the way to Old Testament times. The liturgy transcends time and place and is the language and culture of the Church. We utilize a variety of instrumentation to enhance our Sunday Morning services.
