"[Jesus said] Very truly, I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father. I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do it."

John 14:12-14

Our Core Values serve as the foundation for who we are as God’s people. These four principles are inherent to our identity as Lutheran Christians in the Virginia Synod: Christ, Peace, Community, Compassion. For us, this means, God’s love is revealed in Christ Jesus; God’s presence brings hope in the midst of change; God’s spirit unites us in relationship; and God’s generosity is boundless and calls us to serve.
