  • The Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are God’s Word, inspired by the Holy Spirit, the unique and authoritative witness to Jesus Christ
  • God alone is Lord of the conscience
  • There are different gifts and different ways of serving God
  • God calls both men and women to ministry
  • We are called by Christ to welcome and include all people
  • We are called to a ministry of reconciliation
  • In all our human diversity, together we are one body in Christ

Our Vision

Knox Presbyterian Church will be a spiritual house where God's gift of grace is celebrated in life-giving relationship of reconciling lvoe.

As one family in Jesus Christ, Knox will be a household of welcome, acceptance and faith where all God's people are both invited and equipped to live out the good new of the Gospel.
