We are a people who will train and equip believers for the work of ministry, sending out missionaries and planting churches, inviting every person to be a part of what God is doing by finding their place in fulfilling the Great Commission so that all would know Jesus is Lord and that none would be lost.

OUR CORE VALUES

We Believe that Jesus Is Lord  
Matthew 22: 34-40, John 14: 6, Philippians 2: 9-11 

Jesus is the head of the church. Unity among the various expressions of the body of Christ is best achieved through focusing on Jesus, who alone is able to draw all people to Himself. Jesus is the complete and ultimate expression of God and is part of the Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit

We Stand on the Word of God
II Timothy 3: 16-17, Romans 15: 4, Psalm 1 

The Bible is our authority and sole guide for life and faith. We accept on faith that all of the Scripture is inspired and is without error; however not all interpretation is without error. Therefore we support and encourage the study of the original manuscripts, recognizing the original audiences and purposes of a text, and allowing the Bible to interpret itself. For the Scriptures are a living Word that are always relevant and revealing God's purpose for all of creation

We Desire Genuine Worship
I Peter 2: 9, John 4: 23-24, Psalm 98: 4-9, Psalm 105: 1-4. 

Worship establishes and encourages a right relationship between God and his people-God is the audience. Worship is essential for the believer and central to the life of the church. In it we cast our eyes to the Cross, we come under the instruction of God's word, we are strengthened by the sacraments of Baptism and the Lord's Supper, bound together as Christ's body. Worship involves the whole person-body, mind, heart and spirit.

We Are Called By God
Matt 4: 19, I Cor 12: 12&27, Ephesians 4: 11-16 

We believe in "the priesthood of all believers" (I Peter 2: 4-10). All of God's people are called to ministry and the body of Christ must recognize and affirm that call. God has gifted every believer, through the presence and power of the Holy Spirit to serve the cause of Christ Jesus in the world.

We are Free In Christ
Romans 8: 1-2, Galatians 5: 1, John 8: 31-36 

Because of what Jesus has done for us we are free! In this congregation it is OK to have fun, it is OK to make mistakes, it is OK to say no. We are free to serve God as the Lord leads us and not out of guilt, obligation or duty. We serve God in response to what the Lord has already done for us-we serve Him joyfully.

We Will "Go And Make Disciples"
Matthew 28: 18-20, Matthew 4: 18-20, Luke 19: 10, Acts 1: 8.
Jesus gave his disciples this command-"Go and make disciples of all nations". Therefore the church exists primarily for the sake of those who don't yet belong. We will seek to invite every person to consider a living and personal relationship with Jesus Christ, for He is the only way to salvation and eternal life.
