What we believe:
1. We believe that every word of the Holy Scriptures, both the Old and New Testaments, is the inspired Word of God. 2 Peter 1:20, 21 2 Timothy 3:16
2. We believe in one eternal, sovereign, triune God, existing in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, equal in being, nature, power and glory. 2 Cor. 3:14 Gen. 1:26
3. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is God the Son, We believe that he is sinless and became man without ceasing to be God having been conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary.
John 1:1, 2, 14 Luke 1:35
4. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ accomplished our redemption through His death on the cross as our substitutionary sacrifice. 1 Peter 2:24 Eph. 1:7
5. We believe in His literal, physical resurrection from the dead and that Christ ascended to heaven, and is now exalted at the right hand of God the Father. 1 Peter 1:3-5
6. We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead and that He convicts the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment. John 16:8-11
7. We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God, but that in Adam’s sin inherited a sinful nature, and became alienated from God. Gen. 1:26,27 Rom. 3:23 5:12

9. We believe that all the redeemed, once saved, are kept by God’s power and are thus secure in Christ forever. John 10:27-29
10. We believe that speaking in tongues and sign-miracles gradually ceased as the New Testament Scriptures were completed and their authority became established.
11. We believe that the ordinances of the church are 1) the baptism of the believer by immersion in water and 2) the Communion of the Lord’s Supper. Luke 22:19,20 Acts 8:37-39

Camp Jonah
We took 15 teens and six leaders to Camp Jonah in Trout Lake, WA. for a week of camp. We did everything from the high ropes course to climbing into a cave and playing in the mud pit. The weather and the setting were beautiful and we really enjoyed being surrounded by God's creation for a few days.
The most important part of the week was hearing God's Word on a daily basis and being challenged to have transformed worship, service and faith. Joe Castenada was our speaker and he used the lives of Josiah, David and the woman at the well to challenge us to be "room changers". We need to so have the aroma of Christ around us that people are drawn to Him by seeing us. We had three teens out of our group trust Christ to be their Savior and many other decisions were made as well.
Many thanks to the staff at Camp Jonah for their warm and helpful spirit and for being such a great part of the week. Plan to join us next year at the same time for another life changing week at camp.

Summer Bash
Our teens spent three days with another youth group from Olympia and had a great time. They did everything from playing table games to playing paintball to riding ATV's. They also spent time studying the Bible and singing. It was a great way to make new friends. Thanks to all who helped out with food, driving the boat, cleaning up and supervising.
