Mission:
Jesus’s saving work was to establish a new quality of life-in-relationship between humanity and God as well as between human beings. At SCPC, we understand ourselves as those who are gathered, nurtured, and sent by the triune God - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - to live this new kind of life-in-relationship in our church family, and in the St. Charles and greater St. Louis communities." ~ Church website
