Old and New Testament, is the inspired Word of God and is the final
authority in faith and life.
We believe that prayer is our means
of communicating directly with God and as we pray, worship and
engage in Christian fellowship, we will be strengthened by the
Holy Spirit.
We worship together, as individuals
and families, to increase our knowledge of Jesus Christ and His
mission here on earth. We jointly participate in the sacraments in
praise of God's love.

in-depth study programs for all age individuals to increase our
