Declaring God as the God of grace and love in Jesus Christ who saves people by creating a
vital community of faith where individuals can know the love of God and who can
proclaim it to one another and to the community in word and deed
Creating that vital community of faith where all God's children are welcomed regardless
of age, race, gender, ethnic origin, marital or family status, sexual
orientation, economic or physical condition, and where their spiritual needs
can be met through a variety of ways
Worshiping God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit through the regular proclamation
of the gospel in Word and in
Sacrament according to The Directory for Worship, The
Book of Common Worship, and the supplementary Occasional Services of
the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.); and where members are invited to participate
in the leadership of that worship on a regular basis
Holding at the center of life the truth of God in Jesus Christ and the
integrity of the Church that follows Jesus Christ alone as Head of the Church
Seeking to
establish justice and peace in the world through working to recognize
injustices that must be corrected in order for legitimate peace to prevail, and
to do so as individuals, as a congregation, and with other members of God's
people throughout the community
Creating a community that
demonstrates God's reign and will as God created human life to be lived and
enjoyed by all people
Maintaining
and expanding our program, facilities, and staff in order to continue to
provide a setting that will meet the needs of the congregation and its mission,
and be available for use by community groups whose goals are compatible with
our own
