Who We Are
We are the Episcopal branch of the Jesus movement, and both our worship and our mission are in Christ’s name. In Jesus, we find that the nature of God is love, and through baptism, we share in his victory over sin and death. We strive to love our neighbors as ourselves and respect the dignity of every person. By prayer, study and action, we discover who God calls us to be together.
What We Do
Through our actions, we strive to communicate the abundant love of Christ in the world. If what we do is not about love, it is not about God. We are to bring hope and mercy to a broken world. Check the outreach opportunities in the back of the church or on our website. Join us to bring God’s healing and reconciliation to our homes, community and our world.
What We Believe
We proclaim that Jesus Christ is Savior and Lord of our lives and our world. We believe that God is Creator of the heavens and earth. We believe the Holy Spirit dwells in us and makes us a child of God. We believe that God is not finished with us yet and that God is transforming us to be agents of healing and forgiveness in our home, our community and our world.
