Core Values

Convergence

The belief that Christ's presence and power are at work in the 3 historic elements of the Church, bringing unity in diversity.

Respect

Every human being is created in the image of God from conception and is therefore worthy and deserving of respect.

Integrity

We pledge to pursue honesty and moral uprightness in our personal and public lives.

Accountability

As members of Christ's body, we are responsible to and for each other.

Biblical Justice

Foundational for acts of service, we acknowledge that justice is defined by God alone and includes defending the vulnerable and fighting for their rights, caring for the needs of the oppressed, the helpless, the widow and the orphan, and restoring dignity and independence to all.

Kinship

As individual members of one body, we share a common Head, Jesus Christ, through whom we have communion with God our Father and communion with each other, our brothers and sisters.

Doctrinal Essentials

We believe in one God Who has revealed Himself in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

We believe that salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ's sacrificial death on the cross.

We believe in the historic essential doctrines of the Church as found in the Apostle's and Nicene Creeds.

We believe in the sufficiency of the Holy Scriptures as the foundation for our personal and corporate life together.

We believe that the Evangelical, Charismatic and Sacramental elements within the Church reflect the triune nature of God and that the presence and power of Christ are at work in each of these elements.

We believe that marriage is a covenant between one man and one woman.

We believe that God created mankind as male or female and that these 2 distinct complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God.
