our beliefs
 We are a very simple,
fundamental church that believes
in teaching the Word of God in a
spiritual authority with a
balanced perspective. We
believe that sound doctrine is a
real need in the body of Christ
today.One of our foremost goals as
a corporate body is to provide a
comfortable atmosphere in which
you can grow in the knowledge of
the Lord and meet other
Christians with whom you can
identify.
We believe and identify with
the practices, lifestyle, and
the doctrines of the early
church. We hope, pray and
believe that as the early
members of the church touched
their world for Jesus Christ, so
can we.
