Our Purpose

According to our understanding of Scripture and our core values

• We are a Christian Family of Christ’s Disciples.  We belong to the family of God.  We are the brothers and sisters of the Lord Jesus Christ.  We are His followers, disciples who are both learning and putting into practice what He has taught us.  We seek to be a reflection of His life and ministry as we live out our lives each and every day (1 John 3:1 and Ephesians 4:11-13). 

• We are a Biblically and Prayerfully guided Christian Family.  We believe that the Bible is God’s inspired Word and our only authoritative guide for knowing how to live the Christian way of life.  We additionally possess a prayerful desire to discern and pursue the Lord’s leadership through the power and presence of the Holy Spirit (2 Timothy 3:16 and  1 Thessalonians 5:16-18).

• We are a Christian Family Loving God and Serving Others.  We express our love for God through worship which encompasses both our weekly gatherings as a Christian family and our individual lives through personal devotion to Christ.   We also love God by serving others.  This includes our church’s membership, our friends and family, those who live around us, and the larger body of humanity in the world (Matthew 22:37-40 and 1 John 3:16-17).
