The Church of the Transfiguration is an Anglican church committed to embodying the “faith which was once delivered unto the saints” (Jude 3) that has been handed down to the church through the centuries. We are a living community of faithful people who desire to “worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness” (Psalm 96:9) and proclaim the faith of the undivided church.

As an apostolic and historic church we believe the Bible, rightly interpreted by the consensus of the Church under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, serves as the foundation for our beliefs. We believe that the bible is the Word of God and is given for both our instruction in doctrine and in holy living.

The dogmatic teaching of the scriptures—our essential beliefs—are distilled for us in the great creeds of the church; namely, the Apostles Creed and the Nicene Creed. These definitive statements of the church’s faith, along with the Bible, serve as the foundation for our beliefs as they center upon God’s self-revelation as a Holy Trinity of Persons—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

We are evangelical in our witness, catholic in our faith, apostolic in our order, and orthodox in our worship. We warmly invite you to join us for worship.

• The Nicene Creed

  I believe in one God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, And of all things visible and invisible:

  And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God; Begotten of his Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, Very God of very God; Begotten, not made; Being of one substance with the Father; By whom all things were made: Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven, And was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary, And was made man: And was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate; He suffered and was buried: And the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures: And ascended into heaven, And sitteth on the right hand of the Father: And he shall come again, with glory, to judge both the quick and the dead; Whose kingdom shall have no end.

  And I believe in the Holy Ghost, The Lord, and Giver of Life, Who proceedeth from the Father; Who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified; Who spake by the Prophets: And I believe in one holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church: I acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins: And I look for the Resurrection of the dead: And the Life of the world to come.

• The Apostles’ Creed

  I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth: And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord: Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, Born of the Virgin Mary: Suffered under Pontius Pilate, Was crucified, dead, and buried: He descended into hell; The third day he rose again from the dead: He ascended into heaven, And sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty: From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

  I believe in the Holy Ghost: The holy Catholic Church; The Communion of Saints: The Forgiveness of sins: The Resurrection of the body: And the Life everlasting.
