Worship God through the proclamation of God's Word, the administration of the sacraments, and dedicate our lives to the prayer, praise, thanksgiving, witness, and service to Jesus Christ, who is the Messiah and the Son of the Living God. To fulfill that mission and in response to God's love to meet human needs, the ministry of this congregation will include caring for the sick and the aged, nurturing its members in the Word of God, seeing the primary setting for the exercise of our calling in the words and actions of our daily lives, and by joining with other Christians in prayer and action to express and preserve the unity which the Spirit gives.
