-
A Congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). Please visit www.elca.org to learn more. Also, please check out the ELCA video series: Grace in Action: Who We Are and Why It Matters. It is a wonderful series of conversations around the theology, faith, and practices of the ELCA.
We share in the vision of the ELCA, confessing that Christians are:
- Claimed by God’s grace for the sake of the world, we are a new creation through God’s living word by the power of the Holy Spirit;
- Gathered by God’s grace for the sake of the world, we will live among God’s faithful people, hear God’s word and share Christ’s supper;
- Sent by God’s grace for the sake of the world, we will proclaim the good news of God in Christ through word and deed, serve all people following the example of our Lord Jesus, and strive for justice and peace in all the world.
