Mission Statement
We believe in the beauty and dignity of every person and the strength that is found in our Christ centered community of faith. In Jesus, we welcome all men, women and children. We pledge by our Bible study, worship and service to share God's love freely. We honor and support the importance of every person's calling to serve God.

What We Believe
Seventh-day Adventist Christians believe that God is love. We believe that Jesus is the perfect reflection of His character and the guarantee that God is not a distant and impersonal being. We believe, in the gift of Jesus, that God has broken into history in a unique and precious way to save the world from sin. We believe that Jesus is returning soon to rescue all His children who love him and desire to be with Him. Since we desire nothing more than to be in His presence, we keep the Seventh-day Sabbath as a sign and seal of God's commitment at creation to save and secure His people as His children for all time.

About Seventh-day Adventists

Adventists believe a Trinity of three persons--the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit--make up one God. They made salvation possible when Jesus, the Son, came to earth as a baby in Bethlehem and lived a sinless life in accordance with the Father's will. When Jesus was crucified for the sins of the people of the world and arose from the dead on the third day, victory was won for everyone. More >>
