The Church of God

We believe that God desires to restore an intimate relationshipwith each individual.  Through His sacrifice, Jesus makes a way for each of us to personally know our heavenly Father.  By the Holy Spirit God has delivered to us this wonderful plan, the Word of God.

We believe that God makes a way for us to live holy in this life.  We are not merely forgiven, we are enabled by God’s mercy to follow Jesus every day.

We believe in the unity of God’s people.  We see the body of Christ as separate, however, from mere religion, called out for a purpose.  Our unity is with every believer.

We believe in service to each other and our community.  We have been given a gift more valuable than gold.  Our worship services and outreach programs share Christ with all ages and all walks of life.

We believe in the mercy of God.  This is manifested not only by God’s love to us but also his forgiveness for what otherwise would be his judgement and condemnation for our sin.
