• God will comfort, guide, and forgive every person, no matter who they are or what they've done.
• Serving others and Christian faith go hand in hand.  
• We seek to make our private and our public actions harmonious with our faith.  
• We are part of a global movement of United Methodist Churches that’s making a difference in the world.  
• We affirm our beliefs through the sacred symbols of baptism and communion. 
  • Through baptism, we accept God’s gifts through Jesus. We have no strict rule about how baptism must be performed, although sprinkling water on the head of the person being baptized is most common.  
  • Everyone is accepted and welcome at the communion table, whether members of Lighthouse or not, kids or adults.
• Church is a lot more important and has more soul than a building; it is a "community of faith."
  • This means church can be out in the streets, or wherever "two or more are gathered," as Jesus told us.
  • When we pray together, make plans together, do volunteer work together, have worship together, that’s church.
• The living core of the Christian faith is revealed in the Bible, illuminated by tradition, made vivid in our personal life experiences, and confirmed by reason.
• God calls us to reach out to a world without regard to boundaries created by humanity.
