About Us
We are a spiritual family of brothers and sisters, in Christ. It is our aim, responsibility, and privilege, to be His servants (Eph.4:1).
Saved from our sins by grace (Eph.2:8), we are grateful to Him as our Savior (Matt.26:28). Called to serve Him instead of self (Luke 9:23), we submit to Him as our Lord (Rom.6).
Recognizing that submission to Christ cannot be separated from submission to his word (Luke 6:46; Jn.14:15), we accept His word as authoritative. We turn to Scripture therefore, as our guide and creed (Acts 17:11). We do not adhere to denominational organization, modern would-be prophets, or the amoral philosophies and agendas of current society. We simply aim to work and worship as an assembly (a church) of Jesus Christ in our area.
We have believed in Christ(Jn.3:16), repented from sin (Acts 3:19), confessed our Lord (Rom.10:9), and been baptized in His name unto the remission of our sins (Acts 2:38).
We would be pleased to have you visit with us, and we would be happy to offer assistance to you in finding Bible answers to your questions.
What you won't find when you visit...
- Pleas for your donation, pledge drives, fund raisers, love-offerings for the speaker, etc. etc.
- Our local members do give of their means on the first day of the week [1 Cor.16:1-2] but visitors are not expected to take care of our responsibilities.
- Gymnasiums, dining halls, arcade rooms, etc.
- Though many of us enjoy sports, exercise, and good food, we do not use funds given for the Lord's work to fund such entertainment interests of our own. Furthermore, such things are not the reason for our coming together [cf. 1Cor.11.20-22]. What you will find instead, is a friendly and energetic group of people meeting together for worship and Bible study.
- Back rows of disinterested, half-dressed teens.
- We have over 70 young people. Now they aren't perfect (and neither are we, their parents). But when you see the commendable way in which they dress, conduct themselves, take part in worship and in Bible classes, and see admirable choices they make in their lives – you see a remarkable group of young people. Youth is capable of so much more than our current culture expects of them [Eccl. 12.1; Prov. 22:6].
