"Living our faith, sharing God's Love" is our mission statement. We believe that Jesus' commandments are embodied in our mission. Jesus said that the greatest commandment was to love God with all your heart, mind, and strength and to love your neighbor as yourself; so we are to share God's love. Jesus also said go into the world proclaiming the good news and baptizing to make disciples in all nations; and that is the essence of living our faith.
