the good news of Jesus Christ …

that our gracious and merciful God shows love for all people through Jesus Christ that God saves people from sin and gives them new life through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ that God calls all people into community to grow in faith and spread this Good News to all who have not heard

in faith and works…

by demonstrating our Christian faith through what we say and what we do by showing through our love and sharing that we are disciples of Jesus Christ by welcoming all people in our diverse community that they may be empowered to serve God in the world
