What We Believe

Three important things show us the way to understand our God and our world.

The Bible - We believe that God and God’s people can speak to us through the Bible. All the things we need for a good life are in there.

Our Tradition - We are a church with many old stories. Some of these stories connect us to Jesus and the things he taught us. Some of the stories help us understand what other people think about God and Jesus.

Thinking - The Episcopal Church does not have a human-made set of rules for being God’s people. We believe that in our life with God we should use our minds-we should think about the Bible, tradition and our own experience.
