We believe in the Triune God, one God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth. We 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 into hell. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From thence he will come to judge the living and the dead. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting (The Apostles Creed).
We believe in the Law and the Gospel
The Law reveals we are condemned sinners before a righteous God (Romans 3:9-20). Therefore we confess our sins to God. The Gospel bestows God’s unmerited favor for sinners. Through Jesus Christ our Saviour, all sins are forgiven and we are given peace with God (Romans 3:21-26).
We believe in Salvation through Jesus Christ alone
Through Jesus Christ’s sacrificial death on our behalf the Father declares us righteous. The Holy Spirit works faith in our hearts through hearing this good news so that we receive eternal life (John 3:14-18).
We believe in the Holy Scriptures
The Bible is the inerrant Word of God. Through the prophets and apostles, inspired by the Holy Spirit and chiefly through Jesus Christ Himself, Scripture declares the word that gives life (I Timothy 3:15-16).
We receive the Sacraments
God’s Word promises that the gift of Baptism stirs up faith, forgives sin, and makes us new in Christ (Titus 3:5-6). Through the Lord’s Supper, Jesus Christ’s true body and blood in the bread and wine offer forgiveness and strengthen faith (Matthew 26:26-28). (Holy Communion is given to the baptized who have been admitted into altar fellowship).
We receive the Divine Service
God serves us through His Word and Sacraments. Worship is not what we do for God, but receiving His gifts by faith, resulting in thanksgiving expressed by serving our neighbor (Psalm 67).

Worship

“Our Lord speaks and we listen. His Word bestows what it says. Faith that is born from what is heard acknowledges the gifts, received with eager thankfulness and praise. Music is drawn in to this thankfulness and praise, enlarging and elevating the adoration of our gracious given God.“Saying back to him what he has said to us, we repeat what is most true and sure. Most true and sure is his name wh...
