Our Vision
Our greatest desire is to be a community of God's people who live the Love of Jesus. When striving to discern our way forward, we ask ourselves: What would it mean for us to Live the Love of Jesus in this situation?
Our Mission
Our mission is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. Our worship, study, serving, and sharing programs are all designed to be part of the disciple-making process.
Our Strategy
To make disciples of Jesus Christ, we have five main goals. We constantly strive to...
1. Proclaim the gospel, seek, invite, welcome, and gather persons into the body of Christ.
2. Help people grow unto Christ-likeness by providing opportunities for study, encouragement, and fellowship.
3. Help people discover their spiritual gifts and take their place in service and ministry within the church.
4. Equip people to share their faith and provide opportunities to engage in mission and service to the community and world.
5. Make prayer and worship the center and heart of all we do.
