Our Mission
LOVING - People into an extraordinary life in Jesus
Matthew 22:37-40: 37 Jesus replied: “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment.39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
CONNECTING - People to Christ
Romans 10:14-15: 14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
EQUIPPING - Believers to follow Christ
Ephesians 4:11-12: 11 So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, 12 to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up
INSPIRING - Disciples to impact their world for Christ
Matthew 28:18-20: 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
The Christian Church
WE ARE BIBLE TEACHING
He alone is Lord and Savior. The church belongs to Him. We have no authority to change Bible or its teachings.
WE ARE NON-DENOMINATIONAL
Like the church in the Bible, we are an independent congregation. We determine our leader's call, support our Ministers, and decide our missions, according to the leading of God's Holy Spirit in prayer and scripture.
WE ARE "CHRISTIANS ONLY, NOT THE ONLY CHRISTIANS"
We are listed with the Directory of Ministries for the Christian Church/Church of Christ for the purpose of fellowship, education and mission, but we seek the unity of all Christians in the Church universal.
