activities, bible studies and other such efforts. We shall strive to witness
the "Good News and personally live the "Good Life ". We shall praise God by our
worship, music and singing; participate in the sacraments of Holy Communion and
Baptism and in the rites of confession, confirmation and marriage. We shall care for the sick,
hungry and needy of the world. We shall share the
necessities of life, as well as faith, by our actions and our prayers and praise
to Almighty God through the witness of the Word of God and Sacraments. We shall share the Word
with the rest of the world by supporting Synod and national ministries. We shall reach out, sharing
our time, talents and money in a personal witness to the neighborhood and
community. We will provide
instruction, training and fellowship to Christian and non-Christian alike. We will transport, support,
care, share, love and nurture as an expression of our Christian love and faith! We will celebrate the faith
we know and love at every opportunity. (Adopted
