Because we are a member of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod we hold to these beliefs:
God- We believe in the Triune God; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
Who is Creator of all things.
Who is Creator of all things.
Man- We believe that man was created an intelligent and moral being,
with body and immortal soul. We believe that by His own choice man fell
into sin, thus separating himself from God. Man, therefore, needs a savior.

into sin, thus separating himself from God. Man, therefore, needs a savior.
Sin- We believe that sin is every transgression against God's holy will as
expressed in the Ten Commandments, and that by reason of the guilt
attached to sin man is subject to death and eternal damnation.

Redemption- We believe that our loving God, out of His mercy and grace
alone, sent His Son Jesus Christ who died for us on the cross bearing all our
sins. On Easter Christ rose victoriously from the grave having earned full
forgiveness for us. This gift is available to all through faith in Christ.

forgiveness for us. This gift is available to all through faith in Christ.
Bible- We believe that the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testament
are the inspired and inerrant Word of God. We believe that the Bible is the only
source and authority for all matters of faith and life.
Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod Belief and Practice
With the universal Christian Church, The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod
teaches and responds to the love of the Triune God: the Father, creator of all
that exists; Jesus Christ, 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; and the Holy Spirit, who creates faith through God's Word and
Sacraments. The three persons of the Trinity are coequal and coeternal, one
God.
Being Lutheran
We accept and preach the Bible-based teachings of Martin
Luther that inspired the reformation of the Christian Church in the 16th
century. The teaching of Luther and the reformers can be summarized in three
phrases: Grace alone, Faith alone, Scripture alone.
