Communion of Saints

What We Believe

The Nicene Creed

We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, visible and invisible. 

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father; through him all things were made. 
For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven, was incarnate from the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, and was made man. 
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; 
he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. 
He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father [and the Son], who with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.

We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen. 

The Apostles' Creed

I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, 

born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and he will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.

Streams 

We are a Non-Denominational, Evangelical, Charismatic and Liturgical church in the Wesleyan Tradition. 

Non-Denominational

We are not affiliated with a specific denomination or movement. A plurality of local elders chosen from among our members oversees our congregation. 

Evangelical

We are committed to proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ and inviting people to respond in baptism and discipleship. 

Charismatic

We believe the Holy Spirit is mysteriously present and actively involved in the life of the Church, empowering us to live and gracing us to serve.  

Liturgical

We value the formative practices and traditions of the global and historic Church and incorporate those resources into our life and worship. 

Wesleyan

Within the Protestant movement there are two dominant theological traditions: the Calvinist-Reformed and the Wesleyan-Arminian. We more closely align with the latter's emphasis on free will, formation, and personal and social holiness.
