OUR MISSION:

We baptized members of the Church of Christ, responding to the call of the Holy Spirit through the Gospel, desiring to unite together to preach the Word, administer the sacraments, and carry out God's mission.

The Church at the Crossing

Away from the rush, the jam and the show,

Back where the fragrant wild flowers grow,

And songbirds nest in branches low

Is the country church.

Out from the city with its noisy street,

Out where the air is pure and sweet,

There at the crossing where two roads meet

stands a country church.

On Sabbath day its bell will ring,

And kindly folk will come and sing.

The praise of Him who peace did bring

To the country church.

"Faith of our Fathers," or "Jesus Saves,"

Or "Love Divine," which honest hearts crave,

The people sing and children behave

In the country church.

The sermon is plain but the spirit is there

And people fill each pew and chair;

E'en down the aisle to the place of prayer

In this country church.

And when the last invitation is given,

And old-fashioned saints are gathered in heaven,

We'll meet with those whose sins were forgiven

Back in the country church.
