“The Son of Man has come to seek and save that which was lost.”

Our mission is to bring the gospel to all of mankind, provide an environment of edification for those who receive it, and display the love and compassion of Christ before others. We have one essential product: a changed human being. Our business is to make disciples, fully devoted followers of Christ.

Is to teach families how to know, obey, and enjoy Christ. We are a family oriented church ''traditional, blended or single parent families, etc.''committed to reaching people of all ages, ethnic groups and diverse backgrounds and helping them become fully devoted followers of Christ.

We believe that anointed teaching from the Word of God is the catalyst for changing individual's lives. God's Word will be taught in a relevant way and without apology.

We value joyful, uplifting and God glorifying worship services with a variety of musical expressions and styles. We will lift high the Name of Jesus Christ.

We believe that lost people matter to God, and therefore, ought to matter to the local church. This implies that we are to be intentional in reaching out to the lost and in building relationships with others in the evangelism process.

We believe a church should welcome all people, and therefore, we will be sensitive to seekers and intentional in reaching out to our community at large, to different age groups, ethnic and racial backgrounds, and economic levels.

We value the power of prayer and believe it is essential for ministry, direction, and spiritual growth.

We believe that small groups are an effective means for changing lives, promoting spiritual growth, nurturing one another, accountability, and building relationships.

We value the discovery, development, and use of spiritual gifts by our members to build up the Body of Christ, the church.

We value teamwork and cooperation to accomplish our mission, vision and goals. Therefore, we consider each church member important and a minister for Christ.

We value the stewardship of our financial resources. We honor God, support the church, and extend His Kingdom with our financial giving using the biblical precept of the tithe as a goal to reach or exceed as God prospers us.

We believe in being a reproducing church, intentionally seeking to support and establish other Christ-centered churches.Of course, there are other values such as excellence, servant leadership, personal holiness, the use of the arts, etc, but I am trying to keep it to ten statements.
