We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ

We believe in Christ's deity, virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, atoning death, resurrection, and future return.

Salvation

Salvation is offered through faith in Jesus Christ alone, not by works but by grace.

We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God and our guide for life.
