We believe that God has established Jesus Christ as Lord over all creation and as Head of the Church.
We affirm that Christ calls the Church into being, giving the people of God all that is necessary for the Church's mission in the work, for building up the Body of Christ and for service to God.
We affirm that Christ calls us and empowers us, by the Holy Spirit, to go out into all the world to teach, to baptize and to serve others, even as Christ came to serve.
We affirm that the one body of Christ, which is the Church, has many individual members. We acknowledge that each member has been given a unique set of gifts by the Spirit to contribute to the ongoing ministry and mission of the Church. We also recognize that each member needs the support of the other members of the body in order to grow and to fulfill its calling. Christ is the vine; we are the branches. Apart from Christ and apart from others who serve Christ, we cannot serve our mission.
We, the people and Presbyteries of the Synod of the Rocky Mountains, pledge ourselves to love and support one another to serve our neighbors in our local communities and around the world to proclaim the Good News and to seek to lead others to faith in the one true God so that, together, we may fulfill our calling as disciples of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
