Our

Mission

Is

To

KNOW CHRIST . . . GROW IN CHRIST . . . SHOW CHRIST . . . SO OTHERS MAY . . .

As Christians who happen to be Lutheran we use Worship, Catechesis, and Prayer to form us in our ever deepening relationship with God in Jesus.

A Community of Memory uses beliefs, rituals, or symbols that are taken from  a wider system of meaning of the people who have had a relationship with God going back through the Older Testament. A Community of Memory attempts to tell the stories and enact rituals for a whole new generation of people coming into a relationship with God for the first time.
 A Disciple-forming Congregation wants to make people into disciples of God in Jesus Christ by:

1. Deepening which is growing in relationship with Jesus Christ through personal and corporate spiritual disciplines.

2. Equipping which is growing in giftedness using experiences that encourage people to claim and develop their gifts, discern God's call to them, and acquire the knowledge and skill needed to live out that call faithfully and effectively.

3. Ministering which is growing in service which is using experiences that provide opportunities for people to live out their call and through that both deepen their relationship with Christ and become more effectively equipped to live as Christ's disciples.
