Statement of Belief

We agree that?

  God?s love for humanity is graciously given through Jesus Christ, who alone makes it possible for people to 
experience life as God meant it to be.

  We enter into this life as we commit our lives to knowing and following Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, 
individually and collectively.

  We can meet Christ in every person we encounter and that the Body of Christ is made visible as different local 
congregations join together to be the "hands and feet" of Jesus.

   Our unity is found in Christ and although this unity is not yet complete, it is truly a "first-taste" of 
God?s desire for the Church.
