Welcome

In a day where multiple voices call for our attention, it is often difficult to hear a clear word spoken. We believe our lives are shaped and directed by the words and commands of Jesus who tells us to love others (the Great Commandment) and to proclaim the good news (the Gospel) to all the world (the Great Commission). As such, we strive to be an open and receiving people, recognizing the touch of God within each of us. The Nicene Creed serves as a statement of the faith we place in God who has been revealed to us in the life and ministry of Jesus and who continues with us through the power and presence of his Spirit.

He (Jesus) said to him, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.' This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'  

Matthew 22:37-39  

And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age."

Matthew 28:18-20

NICENE CREED

We believe in one God,

   the Father, the Almighty,

   maker of heaven and earth,

   of all that is, seen and unseen.  

 

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,

   the only Son of God,

   eternally begotten of the Father,

   God from God, Light from Light,

   true God from true God,

   begotten, not made,

   of one Being with the Father.

   Through him all things were made.

   For us and for our salvation

      he came down from heaven;

      by the power of the Holy Spirit

         he became incarnate from the virgin Mary, and

         was made man.

   For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;

         he suffered death and was buried.

   On the third day he rose again

         in accordance with the Scriptures;

   he ascended into heaven

         and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

   He will come again in glory to judge the living and

          the dead,

          and his kingdom will have no end.  

 

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,

    who proceeds from the Father and the Son.

    With the Father and the Son he is worshiped

          and glorified.

   He has spoken through the prophets.

   We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.

   We acknowledge one Baptism for the forgiveness

          of sins.

   We look for the resurrection of the dead,

          and the life of the world to come. Amen
