Mission

Purpose
To invite all to discover, live, and share God's gift of new life through Jesus Christ.
Vision
We are a community, developing faithful followers of Jesus by experiencing God's grace through friendship, spritual growth, and service. Core Values
That the gospel calls us to unconditional regard for all people.
That prayer is necessary for our relationship with God, one another, and the world.
That Scripture provides the foundation for our lives of faith.
That the authority for our ministry is founded in Jesus Christ, the head of the Church,which is the Body of Christ on earth. An elected Parish Council provides administrative authority; our called pastors provide the spiritual authority of the Office of Word and Sacrament Ministry.

That any ministry based on our Purpose, Mission, Vision, and Core Values is valid for our congregation, and may, at any time, evolve or end.

Jesus, the Light of the World, as we celebrate your birth... may we begin to see the world in the light of understanding you give us. As you chose the lowly, the outcasts, and the poor to receive the greatest news the world had ever known, so may we worship you in meekness of heart. May we also remember our brothers and sisters less fortunate than ourselves in this season of giving. Amen.
