Our Presbyterian Beliefs

As a member congregation of PCUSA, we believe in God’s unconditional love, which is freely given to all people. We see that love modeled for us through the life of Jesus Christ and seek to live and share that love by caring for our neighbors everywhere.

PCUSA’s Unique Perspective

We believe God’s presence is constant and continuously revealed to us in new ways through our relationships with each other and with the world around us.  Here are some key aspects of our beliefs.

Biblical Interpretation

We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God. We read it thoughtfully, considering tradition, reason, and experience alongside the actual text.

Mission and Social Justice

We are called to serve our neighbors, our community, and the world, paying special attention to people struggling with issues of poverty, affordable housing, racial injustice, hunger, gender, immigration, and the environment.

All are Welcome

We welcome into membership, leadership, marriage, and ordination all gender identities and expressions, including men, women, and all who identify as LGBTQIA+.
