Mission Statement: 

Our mission is to extend the mission of Jesus beyond the walls of the church.

Organizational Statement of Faith: 

Lutherans believe in the Triune God. God created and loves all of creation -- the earth and the seas and all of the world ‚’s inhabitants. We believe that God's Son, Jesus Christ, transforms lives through his death on the cross and his new life, and we trust that God's Spirit is active in the world.

We are part of God ‚’s unfolding plan. When we gather for worship, we connect with believers everywhere. When we study the Bible or hear God ‚’s word in worship, we are drawn more deeply into God ‚’s own saving story.

The convictions shared by Christians from many different traditions are expressed in statements of belief called creeds.

These ecumenical creeds that Lutherans affirm and use in worship confess the faith of the church through the ages and around the world.
