We covenant to walk with one another to seek and respond to the world and will of God. We purpose to walk together in the ways made known and to be made known to us. We hold it to be the mission of the church to witness to the gospel of Jesus Christ in all the world, while worshipping God as a striving for truth, justcie and peace.
As a church gathered in the congregational tradition, we are a community centered on our covenant. In the act of communion we recognize both our individual relationahip with God through Christ and also our corporate presence before God as his church. All of God's people are welcome to participate in our celebration of communion on the last Sunday of every month, plus World Communion Sunday in October. Communion is served while the congregation remains seated. These services are followed by a time of fellowship.fellowship
