Statement of Faith
We believe in the God-given right to freely associate with other individuals and
collectively promote and pursue common interests.
We believe in the God-given responsibility of families to raise and educate their
child(ren) as their conscience dictates, without government interference beyond
protecting these pursuits.
We believe that the nuclear family is the most basic and foundational social
structure in human history; that God established this family structure in the
beginning, as recorded starting in the 2nd chapter of Genesis, and that we are to
operate with the family as the core unit.
We believe that families can unite around a common purpose. Just as we are called
to be one nation under God, we strive to be a united group operating under Godly
principles.
We believe in the essential Christian doctrine that the Lord Jesus Christ, was born of
a virgin, lived a sinless life and then suffered, died and was buried for our sins, and
that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.
Position Descriptions
We are always looking for people willing to help.
