Faith Practices

Leaning on God

In life’s hardest moments, we lean on God in ways we never imagined. While much is beyond our control, we can choose healthy patterns. Prayer and faith practices steady us, shaping each day, strengthening us and anchoring us in God’s presence.

Trusting in the Holy Spirit

In our faith practices, the Holy Spirit is at work in all we do — guiding our worship, shaping our service, stirring us to proclaim good news, and sending us to seek justice and share God’s love with the world.

Lifted Burdens

As we practice faith and trust the Holy Spirit, our burdens grow lighter, our path grows brighter and hope is renewed for the journey ahead. Thanks be to God!

The Affirmation of Baptism: Five Faith Practices

Our life in Christian community supports us as we experience the joys and struggles of life. We are encouraged in our walk to equally embrace all our differences and celebrate the diversity of gifts that can strengthen us.

Live Among God’s People

Together in Christ

We listen deeply to God’s word as it speaks command and promise, challenging and encouraging us. We listen for God’s call and guidance, and in the Lord’s Supper we hear again: Christ’s body given for us, Christ’s blood shed for us—signs of grace that renew and sustain us.

Hear God’s Word, Share the Supper

Fed by Grace

We carry the story of God’s saving work in Jesus Christ. His life, death and resurrection are not only written in Scripture but alive in us. By sharing how God works through our lives, we witness to the gospel that shapes us and brings life to the world.

Proclaim the Good News in Word and Deed

Witness Through Word & Life

Serving is at the heart of Jesus’ ministry. To follow him is to enter the lives of others, where relationships matter and transformation happens. Jesus came not to be served but to serve, and in serving as he did, we draw closer to Christ and make his love known in the world.

Following Christ’s Way to Serve All

Love Through Action

We speak the truth in love as part of God’s mission of abundant life for all. Aware of personal and social sin, we speak with humility and respect to promote change. Silence is an enemy of justice; a heart and mindset of peace and justice is faith put into practice.
