WHAT WE BELIEVE

We believe in and follow the teaching of Jesus!
We believe God loves you - no exceptions!

Our understanding of God and core beliefs are based upon...

SACRED SCRIPTURE

The Scriptures tell the story of Israel's and the early Church's relationship with God. In the history of Christianity, Sacred Scripture is held in relationship with tradition and reason.

BOOK OF COMMON PRAYER

The 1979 Book of Common Prayer is the sign of our unity as we who are many come together in Christ through our common worship.

THE CREEDS

"The Creeds [Apostles' and Nicen] are statements of our basic beliefs about God” (Book of Common Prayer, p. 851).

SACRAMENTS

Sacraments are "outward and visible signs of inward and spiritual grace"

(Book of Common Prayer, p. 857). 

BAPTISMAL COVENANT

The Baptismal Covenant is the normative statement of what it means to follow Christ in The Episcopal Church.

Anglican

CATHOLIC-REFORMED
ANGLICAN

Episcopalians belong to a church that is both "Reformed and Catholic." On the one hand, we stand in the tradition of the Reformation, which formally began in the 16th century but has roots dating much farther back. In the manner of the Reformation, we place priority (not primacy) in Sacred Scripture and salvation by grace. We also relish in worship and reading the Bible in one's native tongue. On the other hand, we are Catholic (meaning, "universal"), descended directly from the earliest Church with Christian roots in the British Isles dating to at least the 2nd century CE. In this Catholic tradition, we maintain the unbroken succession of bishops and continue practicing the ancient Sacraments and liturgical rites. Episcopalians, moreover, are members of the worldwide Anglican Communion, with 70 million members in 164 countries. Among other things, the Anglican Communion finds unity in and through the Archbishop of Canterbury and the long legacy of Anglican (i.e. English) spirituality.
