Mission:  Expressing God's love, Equipping persons to serve, Encouraging growth in a Spirit-centered fellowship, and Empowering all to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ.

Heritage:  The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) had its beginning on the western frontier of early nineteenth century America.  The movement began from the belief that Christians are essentially one through faith in Christ and that the Bible is their only acceptable guide to faith.

Characteristic beliefs of the Christian Church are each individual's right to interpret the Scriptures for himself or herself and each congregation's freedom to develop its own programs and to conduct worship according to its own wishes.

The Christian Church is also characterized by the weekly observance of the Lord's Supper, baptism by immersion, and the Christ-centered emphasis upon the New Testament for its rule of faith, order, and worship.

The symbol of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) is a simple red chalice bearing the Cross of St. Andrew across the left side of the bowl. Long associated with the Disciples of Christ as a symbol, the chalice points to the centrality of the Lord's Supper in the life and worship of the Disciples who celebrate Communion each Sunday. A Lord's Supper open to Christians of all persuasions has been characteristic of the church from its beginning in the early nineteenth century. The Cross of St. Andrew, national cross of Scotland, focuses attention on the Presbyterian roots of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). The color red signifies vitality, spirit, and sacrifice.
