We are excited to be partnering with Hands-On Willamette Valley for our Service Sunday this month on January 29.  Like we did previously, we will meet at the church for a combined communion and commissioning service at 10:30 and go serve until 1 PM.  We will meet back at the church around 1 PM for a meal and sharing time.  Below is a list of our projects this month.  We are asking folks to sign-up on the web.  You can sign-up using the link below:

We invite you to become a friend of Salem First Christian Church on Facebook. You will have the

opportunity to get some last moment announcements and to see and share photos from church activities.

 

  

 

What Disciples Believe

Disciples Affirm:

 

*Jesus Christ is the son of the Living God

*All Persons are children of God

 

Beliefs and practices usually associated with Disciples include: 

Open Communion. The Lord's Supper, or Communion is celebrated in weekly worship. It is open to all who believe in Jesus Christ.
 
Freedom of belief.  Disciples are called together around one essential of faith: belief in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Persons are free to follow their consciences guided by the Bible, the Holy Spirit study and prayer, and are expected to extend that freedom to others. 
 
Baptism by immersion. In baptism the old self-centered life is set aside, and a new life of trust in God begins. Although Disciples practice baptism by immersion, other baptism traditions are honored. 
 
Belief in the oneness of the church. All Christians are called to be one in Christ and to seek opportunities for common witness and service.
 
The ministry of believers. Both ministers and lay persons lead in worship, service and spiritual growth.
