WHO WE ARE
MISSION
Our mission is to make disciples for Jesus Christ. This is what we strive to do as a people called St. James Church.
VISION
Connecting people with God through exciting worship, compassionate outreach, and authentic faith development. This is how we will live out our mandate of connecting people with God.
MOTTO
Connecting people with God in practical ways. This is a short and concise reminder of what we are all about.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
We believe God’s grace is open to all, and therefore practice “open Communion”–meaning that anyone may participate in receiving Communion. We believe salvation is an open gift from God, accepted by individuals according to their own free will. Like many other Christian groups, we affirm the beliefs expressed in the Apostles Creed.
These include:
- The belief in one God, who is the Creator and sustainer of the universe.
- The belief in the Trinity, that there is one God in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
- The belief in the divinity of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who is fully human and fully divine.
