Baptism of the Holy Spirit: We believe in the experience of being filled with the Holy Spirit, as described in the New Testament, and the manifestation of spiritual gifts in the lives of believers.
Miraculous Gifts: We affirm the continuation of spiritual gifts such as prophecy, healing, and speaking in tongues, as practiced by the early church.
Salvation through Jesus Christ: We believe in salvation through faith in Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice on the cross, offering forgiveness, reconciliation, and eternal life to all who believe.
The Trinity: We affirm the doctrine of the Trinity, believing in one God who exists eternally in three persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit.
Biblical Authority: We uphold the authority of the Bible as the inspired and infallible Word of God, guiding us in matters of faith, doctrine, and practice.
Emphasis on Worship: We embrace vibrant and expressive forms of worship, celebrating the goodness and faithfulness of God through singing, prayer, and praise.
