Mission

What We Believe:

Our supreme desire is to know Christ and be conformed to His image by the power of the Holy Spirit. We like to think of ourselves as Bible Christians. We draw our beliefs from the Word of God and if the Bible says it, we try to practice it.

We are not a denominational church and we are not opposed to denominations; we simply desire to work harmoniously with all those who in truth call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, despite our differences.

We believe that the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God, inerrant in its original autograph texts and that it is relevant and applicable to man today. Therefore, we place great emphasis on the teaching of the Word, so that God may instruct us as to how He desires to be worshipped.
(1 Timothy 4:13, 2 Timothy 3:16-17)

We believe that God is worthy of all praise, reverence and love; therefore, we give great place to worship in song when we are together. It is our goal to worship Him with our whole lives as well, whether at home, at work, or in church.
(Colossians 3:16, 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)

We believe that every believer is called to be an active part of the body of Christ by abiding in Christ through His Word, prayer and fellowship, and by the yielding of our lives to the Holy Spirit for His equipping and empowering.
(Ephesians 4:15-16)

We believe that love is the greatest demonstration of the reality of Jesus Christ. It is our desire that all believers endeavor to show a Christ-like love towards all men. Love should be exhibited in our lives, by our words, as well as by our actions.
(John 13:34-35, Philippians 2:3-5)

We believe that Christian service is the responsibility of all believers. Our goal is to develop the ministry of each member of the body of Christ to the benefit of all.
(Ephesians 4:11-15, 1 Corinthians 12:4-7)
