Our Disciple Beliefs
Like most Christians, Disciples affirm that:
* Jesus Christ is the son of the Living God, and offers saving grace to all.
*All persons are God's children.
Beliefs and practices usually associated with the Disciples include:
* Open Communion
The Lord's Supper, or Communion, is celebrated in weekly worship. It is open
to all believers.
* Diversity of Opinion
Each person
is free to determine their own individual belief guided by the Bible, the
Holy Spirit, and through study and prayer.
* Baptism by Immersion
In baptism, the old
self-centered life set aside, and a new life of trust in God is made possible. We welcome transfers of membership from those who have been baptized by sprinkling or as infants, without requiring them to be immersed.
* Importance of Church Unity. All Christians should cooperate in ministry wherever possible, affirming each other as sisters and brothers in Christ.
* The Ministry of all Believers.
Both ministers and lay persons lead worship, direct service opportunities
and nurture spiritual growth.
* Freedom of Belief.
Disciples are called around one essential faith, which is the belief
in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
