Worship Fully – because Christmas begins and ends with Jesus

Spend Less – and free your resources for things that truly matter.

Give More – of your presence: your hands, your words, your time, your heart.

Love All – the poor, the forgotten, the marginalized, and the sick in ways that make a difference.

Everybody believes something when it comes to faith: “I’m a believer”, “I’m an agnostic”, “I’m an atheist”; “I believe Jesus was a good man”, “I believe all people are good”.  When it comes to faith, is what we believe important?  Traditionally, Christians have held to certain beliefs about God, faith, and the church.  So, what are they, and what bearing do they have on our lives today?

Join us on Sundays in Rochester or Farmington as we explore what “We Believe”!
