We are a church open to all. As modern day pilgrims we consider it our privilege and committed responsibility to:
CELEBRATE the glory of God through worship, service and stewardship
NURTURE our relationship with Christian love and truth; and
SERVE others in our daily lives individually and collectively as Christ’s people.

What is Congregationalism We are a church of faith, freedom, and fellowship. Faith: A person's relationship with God is the most important thing. It is lived out on Sunday and every day. Freedom: We share unity in the essential things of the Christian faith, and charity in all other matters. We are not all the same, and we like it this way. Fellowship: As fellow travelers we are joined as spiritual friends in Christ. We don't believe in going it alone. We need you and you need us. We are a mainstream church holding to the historic beliefs of Christianity. We are a congregation that shares an openness to new and creative ways of being faithful. Most of our members have come from other denominations, or from no church affiliation; our congregation is, in effect, a quilt of different backgrounds, opinions, and experiences joined together in the spiritual life. While most churches are run from the top down, a congregational church is run from the bottom up. The people are the church. They own and operate the church. Free from the constrains of a parent organization, each church in the Congregational way is unique with a varied fellowship. |
