Our God is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He reveals himself to bless and save us. Yet he also hides himself to serve us. One of the ways he hides himself is the way he works through his own creation to provide us with everything we need.
Since God now reveals himself by his Spirit, where is the Holy Spirit found? How does he come to us? God has not left the answer to those questions in doubt. When Jesus promised to send the Spirit, he indicated that the Spirit's work would be connected to words, specifically to God's Word. As a result, we need never wonder where we can find the Spirit or how he comes to us. Where the Word is proclaimed, there you will find the Holy Spirit's presence and blessing.

If you look at Christians from a human perspective, you will see that we have some characteristics in common, and many differences. But if you look at what we're doing - gathering to hear the Word of God and receive Communion - and if you listen to our confession of faith - "We believe in one God" - you will discover that we are united. Jesus prayed that we would have unity, and unity is what Jesus works among us today.
The Bible shapes everything we say and sing. Our pastor invests time in sermons that are rooted in Scripture, incorporate both law and gospel, and provide applications for everyday life. We invite you to learn more about our church and join us for worship soon.
