Our Vision
To present to the world mature disciples of Jesus Christ
Our Mission (E.M.B.R.A.C.E.)
To Engage every Member in Building families, Restoring the lost, Articulating the gospel in our Community and Empowering each person
Affirmation of Faith
We believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth: and in Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and buried. He descended into hell, on the third day He arose again from the dead and ascended into heaven: and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father. From thence, He shall come to judge the living and the dead. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Universal Church, the Communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sin, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting.
