Faith Church is a community of believers centered in Christ, caring for others and loving one another.
Based on the Foundations of Presbyterian Polity, we affirm the following:
The Church is the body of Christ. Christ gives to the Church all the gifts necessary to be his body. The Church strives to demonstrate these gifts in its life as a community in the world (1 Corinthians 12:27-28):
The Church strives to be faithful to the good news it has received through Scripture and accountable to the standards of the confessions. The Church seeks to present the claims of Jesus Christ, leading persons to repentance, acceptance of Christ alone as Savior and Lord, and new life as his disciples.
The Church is sent to be Christ’s faithful evangelist:
making disciples of all nations in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit;
sharing with others a deep life of worship, prayer, fellowship, and service; and
participating in God’s mission to care for the needs of the sick, poor, and lonely; to free people from sin, suffering, and oppression; and to establish Christ’s just, loving, and peaceable rule in the world.
