2007 VISION

“For I know the plans, I have for you,” says the Lord.

“They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”

Jeremiah 29:11

OUR VISION

TO KNOW GOD

* Experiencing the heart of God.

* Knowing the agape of God.

* Growing in relationship with God.

TO WORSHIP GOD

* Adoration of our Savior.

* Experiencing the presence of god.

* Communion with the heart of God.

TO SERVE GOD

* Meeting the basic need of people

* Making Disciples through Faith-Sharing

* Deploying the new Disciples for their ministry


The fulfillment of the vision takes each of us working together. Therefore, we are all invited to join in the quest by our prayers, presence, gifts, and service.

The first step we will take in 2007 is to work through the Church Vitality Indicator. We will commence this work the week of January 7, 2007.

Gathering in a Discernment-Prayer team, we will seek to discover God’s leading for us as a church family. It is our hope and prayer that through this process the Holy Spirit will lead us to the ministries God would most desire for us to commit ourselves.
