Our mission is to bring the love and reconciliation of Jesus to each other and to our community. 

 

Core Values

 

We hold Jesus as our singular focus, the center of all we do believing that He is the root of our purpose and our faith. (John 3:16; Colossians 3:17)

 

We value spiritual transformation in individuals’ lives and in the church through Biblical teaching, Christ-centered discipleship, and the working of the Holy Spirit.   (2 Timothy 3:16–17; 2 Corinthians 5:17)

 

We value every person as a child of God, believing all people matter to God, and therefore, they matter to the church. (Luke 5:30–32; Luke 15; Matthew 18:14)

 

We value kingdom-minded community, believing the church operates as such and our unity is an image of God’s present kingdom. (Matthew 6:10; John 13:34-35)

 

We value family faith, believing a person’s spiritual growth is nurtured from infancy into adult life, through the teachings and examples set by their family and reinforced through the teaching of the church. (Proverbs 22:6; Ephesians 6:4; 2 Timothy 1:5)

We value the spiritual gifts God gives, believing the church works best when believers function within their spiritual gifts and ministry calling. (1 Corinthians 12 and 14; Romans 12:9-13)

 

We value personal commitment to God and the body of Christ, believing that striving for excellence honors God and inspires people. (Colossians 3:17)

 

We value the place of the local church, believing it is the body of Christ and for the purpose of community, worship, discipleship, and service.

 

We value the calling of all believers, understanding God has called and equipped everyone to do His work and to build up the church, the body of Christ. (Ephesians 4:11-16)

 

We value generosity as a means of honoring God, believing He is a good father who gives good gifts, so we live generously with all that God provides. (2 Corinthians 9:6-15; Luke 11:13; Luke 21:1-4; Lev. 25:35-37)
