At Community Church we hold to the historic beliefs of the Christian church. We declare with Christians around the globe the proclamation of faith as expressed in the Apostles Creed.

The Apostles’ Creed

I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; he descended to the dead.* On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

*or “he descended into hell,” another translation of this text in widespread use.

• Personal God: We believe God is involved in and cares about my daily life.
