About Us
Our Church
Emmanuel Mennonite Church is an inclusive faith community that seeks to know and experience God through Jesus Christ and one another. Emmanuel is a name for Jesus, derived from a Hebrew word meaning God with us. We experience God with us as we gather for worship and fellowship, and practice our faith by promoting justice, peace, and creation care.
Our denomination, Mennonite Church USA is one among many Mennonite groups.
Here are some links to Mennonite organizations:
The Beltram Peace Center
Local Engagement
We work for peace, justice, and creation care through the Beltram Peace Center, named for Fred Beltram, whose legacy funded the purchase of our meeting house and underwrites the cost of providing speakers and materials for events and programs.

Faith is knowing that God sees me, loves me and walks with me so I can face life's challenges with hope.
And the Word became flesh and lived among us.
We should do good to everyone - especially to those in the family of faith.
While we reach toward God we create a shelter under our branches.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth... God saw all he had made, and indeed it was very good.
