Worship and Beliefs

Worship Here...

Eternal Love hangs all of its beliefs and teachings on these three main tenets of faith:

• We are saved by God's grace alone.
• We are saved through faith alone.
• What we believe is from the Bible alone.

Every Sunday, we offer unique worship experience using a variety of formats. The result is a meaningful, thoughtful service built around a theme examined in the light of scripture.

The goal of our services is to uplift, encourage, and comfort our worshipers as we give glory to our loving Lord. Eternal Love offers a "blended" worship style. This means our worship team works to blend the best of classic and contemporary worship styles.

All our musicians are members/friends of Eternal Love, that give willingly of their time and talents.  We strive to include students with relevant skills in service to the Lord.  We strive to make worship about our King and not about ourselves.

We provide all worship material in two forms:

1. projected on the wall
2. printed bulletins 

Children are important to us, so we have "quiet bags" with activity items.  They also receive a special bulletin crafted completely for young children to draw, color, crossword, or word-find their way to a quiet service as well as a scriptural nugget.  

We strive to meet and greet everyone who enters our doors.  Test us and see.  Come experience a simple love and friendship that can truly last forever . . . an Eternal Love!

Our Mission

We exist to Glorify God, Grow in His word, and Go into the world with the message of His eternal love.

Eternal Love strives to be a warm and friendly congregation united upon and dedicated to our mission. 

Core Values

Faithfulness to the Word and Sacraments

In all we do as a gathering of believers we follow the Word of God. As we share God’s eternal love, we prize the proper use of his sacraments among us, offering baptism to all and celebrating holy communion regularly in Jesus’ name and for the forgiveness of sins. “Continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of . . .” (2 Timothy 3:14a).

Preaching & Worship

We affirm the centrality of the Word and Sacraments in our preaching and worship. As we share the message of His eternal love, we strive to communicate it and celebrate it with energy and variety.  “Worship in spirit and in truth” (John 4.24).

Love

We model God’s eternal love as we build and nurture personal, caring relationships in gathering for fellowship and service. “Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God (1 John 4:1).
