The Church is a purposeful community of gathered believers following The Jesus Way together.

We are a Believers’ Church!

We believe in a regenerated church membership. The experience of conversion through faith in Jesus Christ is a prerequisite for baptism and subsequent church membership.

The church was birthed at Pentecost and comprised of people who accepted (believed) the Gospel!

The Gospel according to the Apostolic Witness:
Jesus Christ lived as man, accredited as Divine through attesting miracles.
Jesus Christ was put to death on a cross by men, though according to the divine purposes of God.
Jesus Christ was resurrected from the dead as foretold by the prophets and witnessed by the Apostles.
Jesus Christ has ascended to the Father, been exalted as His Son, and has sent the Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ offers His Spirit to all who repent from their sins and believe in Him.
Jesus Christ adds these believers to His new community (the Church).
