CHURCH MISSION
Our mission is... to glorify God, grow in Christ, and share His love with all.
CHURCH HISTORY
Our denomination was established in Germany in 1708 as part of Radical Reformation. Initially, the Radical Reformers believed it was wrong to have a state church, and from this stance, and from thorough search of scripture, Believer's baptism became an important practice. The church was often defined as a company of true believers in Christ who were baptized after they confessed their faith. Anabaptist and Radical Pietist movements contributed to the formation of a church of voluntary disciples free from state control, following the New Testament teachings and morally upright and peace-loving.
Throughout our history we have maintained strong emphasis on peace, family life, simple living, the brotherhood of all persons, the priesthood of believers, no force in religion, believers baptism by trine immersion, anointing for healing and the full Love Feast with preparation, feet washing and a simple meal and Communion.
While we agree with many of the familiar Christian beliefs and creeds, we accept the New Testament as our only creed. This has given the Bible a very important place in out worship, study and life together.
