Mission
Our mission is to
make
disciples for Jesus Christ. We
do this by cultivating, celebrating and activating our faith:
I.
Cultivating Faith in Jesus Christ: We seek to be an inviting
community where members and visitors alike feel safe in seeking God and
growing in faith. We cultivate
faith through our Christian education, Christian fellowship, worship and sharing
our faith with others.
II. Celebrating Faith in Jesus Christ: We are committed to a dynamic celebration of our faith. Using music, the spoken and written word, drama, dance, and every loving act that we do, we respond to God's love, which constantly rekindles our love for God and for our neighbor.
III. Activating Our Faith in Jesus Christ: We seek to be a supportive base of operations, which will challenge, encourage and empower members to take the lead in initiating, planning, and carrying out short and long-term ministries, which meet the needs of God's children, care for God's creation, and expand God's Kingdom.
