Our Purpose and Priorities:

 

Our purpose is to bring praise to God by being a beacon of hope that draws others to the grace of Jesus and to membership with this church so that they are equipped to be His fully devoted servants.

 

Our purpose as a church is lived out within three relationships that have priority.

 

1.  Our first priority is our relationship with God.  This will include: experiencing an awareness of God, discerning His truth, celebrating His nature and works, and responding in obedience to His leadership. 

 

2.  Our second priority is our relationship with each other.  First, this will include fostering relationships between the people of this church.  Second, this will include equipping believers so they can mature in their spiritual walk.  Third, as ministers for Christ the members will be encouraged to serve Him unselfishly through the ministries of this church and other opportunities.  Furthermore, we shall strive to be a church that emphasizes the total commitment of life, personality, and possessions to the Lordship of Christ in our daily lives.

 

3.  Our third priority is our relationship with the world.  This will include being a dynamic spiritual body empowered by the Holy Spirit to share Christ with as many people as possible in our community, and throughout the world.   We shall have the goal of leading them to salvation and discipleship in Jesus Christ.
