Vision & Mission
When Jesus comes, we want to be found, Spreading God’s love in Jesus Christ.
Spreading God’s love in Jesus Christ
We spread God’s love in Jesus Christ as others enter into a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. According to the Bible to have a relationship with God we need His forgiveness. All have fallen short of God’s perfect standard, the Bible calls this sin. God has made forgiveness available for all through His Son, Jesus Christ. Although His forgiveness is available it is not automatic. Because it is impossible to get to heaven on our own, a person must turn from their sin and their self and trust Jesus Christ as the forgiver of their sin and the leader of their life.
We love God through obedience to Him according to His Word. According to the Bible a mark of a believer, who is following Jesus Christ, is to obey His command to be Baptized. Baptism is not a requirement for salvation, but is a vital first step in following Jesus Christ. According to the Bible a mark of a believer who is following Jesus Christ, is through habits that honor Him. We grow in a relationship with Jesus Christ when we: faithfully Worship Him; learn to apply His Word to our life which is Discipleship; use our spiritual gifts in Ministry; share the love of God which is Evangelism; Fellowship with people who honor Him.
Spreading God’s love in Jesus Christ
We show our love for God as we show our love for people. It is our belief that when a person has been impacted by the love of God in Jesus Christ they will show that love in tangible ways to the world. We believe when a person has been touched by the love of Jesus that their life begins to look like the life of Jesus, putting others first.
We show our love for God as we show our love for people through Missions. Missions is deliberately impacting others with the Love of God. According to Acts 1:8, we believe that we are responsible to impact our: Jerusalem, which is our immediate community; Judea, which is our state; Samaria, which is our Nation; world.
