STATEMENT OF FAITH
The vision of Cross Creek Community Church is to embody the ministry, message, and hope of Jesus Christ. Our mission is to empower people to become fully devoted followers of the God of Jesus Christ.Our Statement of Faith:
Cross Creek Community Church embraces the following statement of faith, revised in 1981 (in the form of a Doxology), and affirmed by the Fourteenth General Synod of the United Church of Christ:
and our God, and to your deeds we testify:
You call the worlds into being, create persons in your own image,
and set before each one the ways of life and death.
You seek in holy love to save all people from aimlessness and sin.
You judge people and nations by your righteous will declared through
prophets and apostles.
In Jesus Christ, the man of Nazareth, our crucified and risen Savior,
you have come to us and shared our common lot, conquering sin
and death and reconciling the world to yourself.
You bestow upon us your Holy Spirit, creating and renewing the church of
Jesus Christ, binding in covenant faithful people of all ages,
tongues, and races.
You call us into your church to accept the cost and joy of discipleship,
to be your servants in the service of others, and to proclaim the
gospel to all the world and to resist the power of evil, to share
in Christ's baptism and eat at his table, to join him in his
passion and victory.
You promise to all who trust you forgiveness of sins and fullness of grace,
courage in the struggle for justice and peace, your presence
in trial and rejoicing, and eternal life in your realm which has no end.
Blessing and honor, glory and power be unto you. Amen.
