Vision Statement:
We have a vision of.....
.....a church that is relevant to the current culture and the emerging post modern culture.
.....a church with a tangible atmosphere of love, acceptance and forgiveness.
.....a church whose primary focus is to reach the lost.
.....a
church of disciple development. One that encourages and more
importantly facilitates growth in each individuals personal walk with
Christ.
.....a
church of ministry development. One that helps individuals discover
what God has uniquely designed them to do. We will facilitate and train
them to walk in their calling.
.....a
church that purposely reaches and teaches our children and youth. We
chose to place a high value on our kids. We understand that they are
not the church of tomorrow, they are the church of today.
.....a
church committed to restoration, a spiritual hospital. We must purpose
to bring wholeness to humanity. Wholeness to spirit, soul, and body.
.....a
church that is committed to building community through covenant
relationships. Through cells and other small groups we will discover
what God's Word teaches us are the true principles of covenant
relationships. As a church, we must be willing to agree to disagree on
non-essentials, and accentuate the essentials.
.....a
church that is a sending force. We will send out, from our body,
pastors, missionaries, evangelists, etc. Fully trained and prepared to
make an impact in the area that God calls them.
.....a
church that is not only locally focused, but globally focused as well.
Through people and/or resources we will support ministries all over the
world, fulfilling the 'Great Commission' globally.
.....a
church that is willing and ready, by the grace of God, to be constantly
formed by the hand of God in order to meet the challenges of the
future. We must remain culturally relevant even as the culture changes.
Mission Statement:
Lead -> Raise -> Send
We will lead as many people as we can to our Lord Jesus Christ! We say, “Helping people who say, 'No', say, 'Yes' to God”.
We will raise
up committed Christians, developing them into spiritual giants for God.
Realizing that Jesus, Moses, and David, as well as other biblical men
and women were examples to reach toward and not examples that are out
of reach.
We will send
them out. We will help them discover what it is that God has uniquely
designed them to do. Once they begin to see God's purpose for their
lives we'll help them grow into that purpose and create opportunities
for them to succeed.
