At Laurel Avenue, we believe the Bible is the inspired word of God. Our authority in faith and practice is the Bible. We do not subscribe to human tradition or doctrines, but only by the scriptures.

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

The Sunday morning worship service at Laurel Avenue is simple, and centers on Jesus Christ, following the simple principles of the New Testament. Our goal is to praise God, and help each person to draw closer to God and Christ. We sing a cappella, pray, have communion, and study scriptures from the Bible.

At other times, there are a variety Bible study classes for all ages. There are other groups that meet for discussion and study, as well as encouragement and fellowship. This is an opportunity to discuss personal concerns with acceptance and love.

Anyone who confesses Jesus Christ as Lord, and turns away from a sinful lifestyle and imitates the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus in water baptism, receives forgiveness of sins, the Holy Spirit and membership in the body of Christ.

Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off--for all whom the Lord our God will call." (Acts 2:38-39)
