He said to them, Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
[Mark 16:16]
Purpose
The purpose of this congregation is to live and do the will of our Lord Jesus Christ in accordance with his charge to us (Matthew 28:19-20) to go and make disciples of all people. Our goal is to share with all the message of salvation through living and speaking the Word and through the administration of the Sacraments. We seek to emphasize in our personal and congregational lives the guidance of St. Peter to the early church in I Peter 3:15-16 "But have reverence for Christ in your hearts, and honor Him as Lord. Be ready at all times to answer anyone who asks you to explain the hope you have in you, but do it with gentleness and respect. Keep your conscience clear, so that when you are insulted, those who speak evil of your good conduct as followers of Christ will be ashamed of what they say."
Confessional Standard
