VISION & PURPOSE

Love God. Grow Together. Serve Others.

OUR VISION

To grow devoted followers of Jesus
through healthy, biblical churches.

Our desire is to help people discover a personal relationship with God through Jesus, to grow deeper in that relationship, and to spread the gospel through church partnerships and church planting locally and around the world. 

OUR PURPOSE

Love God. Grow Together. Serve Others.

We want the gospel to take center stage in our hearts and around the world. Jesus said to His followers: “…All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (Matthew 28:18–20). 

Jesus’ directive is our highest priority. Every facet of church activity, in some way, relates to our biblical purpose.
Just as the New Testament church in the book of Acts was focused on making disciples, so are we! Acts 5:42 records of the Jerusalem church: “And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.” This young church was constantly engaged in communicating the gospel and helping people become devoted followers of Jesus.
Love God.
This begins in the heart with a personal relationship with God through Jesus. This love grows as we worship together in spirit and truth by hearing the teaching of God’s word. “And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.” (Mark 12:30)
Grow Together.
We grow together through God’s word and through community. Jesus built a community of fellowship we now enjoy as Christians. The Bible is taught in every worship service, in every Group, and one-on-one through discipleship. “But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.” (2 Peter 3:18)
Serve Others.
Jesus adds people to His church and gifts them to serve by His grace. We desire to help all members of our church family discover and use their gifts to serve others through outreach, missions, and care. “For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.” (Galatians 5:13)
