Our congregation is Christian by faith and Lutheran by tradition. The Lutheran Church was the first organized denomination of the Protestant Reformation. The basic teachings of our faith are the same now as they were then:
  • Belief in Jesus Christ as the only incarnation of the One True God.
  • The firm conviction that salvation is achieved through the grace and forgiveness of God, found in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
  • The claim that the one God is a triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
  • The conviction that the authority of our faith comes from the divinely inspired Word of God found in the Holy Bible.
  • And the belief that Jesus calls us to a Christian life lived out in both word and deed; in word by our verbal witness to the salvation found in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ; in deed by our acts of charity and love toward all people, but especially the poor and disadvantaged.
