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.
