Our Mission
"Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in... hope, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality." Romans 12:11-13
There is only one God Who exists in Three Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Jesus was God in flesh, was born of a virgin, and was both God and man.
He lived a sinless life, died in our place as a sacrifice for the sins of mankind, was buried, arose from the grave, and ascended into heaven.
Through the Holy Spirit, God is at work, convincing unbelievers of their need for salvation, and is the Comforter and Guide to every believer.
