We confess and acknowledge one God alone, to
whom alone we must cleave, whom alone we must
serve, whom alone we must worship, and in whom
alone we put our trust. Who is Eternal,
infinite, immeasurable, incomprehensible,
omnipotent, invisible; one in substance and yet
distinct in three persons, the Father, the Son,
and the Holy Ghost. By whom we confess and
believe all things in heaven and earth, visible
and invisible, to have been created, to be
retained in their being, and to be ruled and
guided by this inscrutable providence for such
end as His eternal wisdom, goodness, and justice
have appointed, and to the manifestation of His
own Glory.
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 Ghost, born of the
Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius
Pilate, was crucified dead and buried,
He descended into hell, the third day He
rose again from the dead , He ascended
into heaven and sitteth on the right
hand of God the Father Almighty, from
thence He shall come to judge the living
and the dead, We believe in the Holy
Ghost, The Celestial Church of Christ,
The Communion of Saints, The forgiveness
of sins, The resurrection of the body
and the life everlasting Amen.
To evangelize the world through the
proclamation of the word-the Good News

every believer is a unique expression of
Gods Love; Romans 6:6-8.

God loves you beyond all
reason and has a wonderful plan of good
success for your life; John 3:16.

The gift of God is eternal
life through Jesus Christ our Lord; Romans

Believing and receiving
Jesus Christ into your life is a personal
decision and this leads to eternal life;

All persons who earnestly and sincerely desire
to be saved and therefore accept Jesus Christ as
