First Christian Church

An Affirmation of Faith

As members of the Christian Church,

We confess that Jesus is the Christ,

The Son of the Living God, and

Proclaim him Lord and Savior of the world.

In Christ name and by His grace

We accept our mission of witness

And service to all people.

We rejoice in God,

Maker of heaven and earth

And the covenant of love which

binds us to God and one another.

Through baptism into Christ

We enter into newness of life and

Are made one with the whole people of God.

In the communion of the Holy Spirit

We are joined together in discipleship and

In obedience to Christ.

At the table of the Lord

We celebrate with thanksgiving the saving

Acts and presence of Christ.

Within the universal church

We receive the gift of ministry and in the

Light of scripture.

In the bonds of Christian faith we

Yield ourselves to God that we may

Serve the One whose kingdom has no end.

Blessing, Glory and Honor be to God forever.

Amen
