About Us

Statement of Faith:

1. The Bible - We Believe the Bible to be the complete and Infallible Word of God. Inspired by God; and accept the Scriptures as the final authority in all matters of faith and practice.

2. God - We believe in one God, Creator of all, Holy, Sovereign and Eternally Existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe that Jesus Christ if fully God and became fully human, led a sinless life and died a perfect death as a Substitution sacrifice, rose again and ascended to be our Mediator and Advocate. Jesus is coming again! We believe in the Holy Spirit, who convicts the world of sin, of righteousness and of judgment and is the life of every Believer.

3. Man - We believe that all people everywhere were divinely created in the image of God, but are dead in sin and guilty before God, resulting in physical and spiritual death, separation from God and the effects of sinful nature; because of sin, all people are thoroughly corrupted and in need of God's Savior, Jesus Christ.

4. Salvation - We believe that all who receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit and thereby children of God and heirs of eternal life. This is a relationship in which they are eternally secure. We believe in the bodily resurrection of everyone, to face either an eternity in Heaven or Hell.

5. The Christian Life - The Holy Spirit enters the Believer upon conversion and gives the capacity to live according to God's Word, in unity with other believers and on mission for the rest of the World.

6. The Church - We believe in the Church, the Body of Christ, whose mission it is to carry the message of Good news to the entire World.
