- To proclaim the gospel of Christ by word and deed;
- To be led by the Holy Spirit to new ways of living, while respecting the church's traditions;
- To be a caring and spiritual congregation where fellowship is extended, and where we encourage one another through Christian education, spiritual growth, and mutual care.
