What We Believe
The Basics
As a congregation of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod, we believe and teach the love of the Triune God:
- The Father, creator of all that exists
- The Son, who became human to suffer and die for the sins of all human beings and to rise to life again in the ultimate victory over death and Satan;
- The Holy Spirit, who creates faith through God’s Word and Sacraments.
If you’d like more information about what it means to follow God in the Lutheran tradition, check out the LCMS’s Belief and Practice page.
Communion
The Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper is intended for those:
- who have been baptized in the name of the Triune God;
- who have faith in Jesus Christ as God the Son and their personal Savior from sin, death, and the devil;
- who believe that they have sin that needs forgiveness, hurt that needs healing, faith that needs strengthening;
- who are committed to amending their sinfuls ways; and
- who believe that in, with and under the bread and wine they receive the true body and blood of the risen Christ, together with the forgiveness of all their sins.
If you are a visitor and wish to receive the Lord’s Supper please speak to the Pastor, preferably before the service.
