our mission
In God’s comprehensive work of renewing His creation, our mission is to make disciples of Jesus. We are a redeemed community of believers in Christ, created to love God and one another out of our faith in Christ. In this faith:
- We daily rejoice in believing, praising, and loving God above all else. Our Lord helps us to grow in our relationship with Him by daily repenting and turning away from sin, trusting in Jesus’ death and resurrection, all by the work of the Holy Spirit.
- We gather together as brothers and sisters in Christ to read God’s Word, pray, care for each other, and help one another grow in their faith in Jesus.
- We gladly proclaim the Gospel and share the gifts God gives us to bless our community and the world.
Belief and Practice
Faith Lutheran Church teaches and responds to the love of the Triune God, whom we confess alongside the universal Christian Church in the words of the Apostles’ Creed:
We believe in God, the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth.
And 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. Amen.
Faith Lutheran Church accepts all the canonical books of the Old and New Testaments as the inspired Word of God, and it acknowledges and teaches in accordance with the Lutheran Confessions contained in the Book of Concord (and more briefly summarized in Luther’s Small Catechism).
