Our mission and values shape and direct us as a local church

Our mission

Our mission is to raise up wholehearted followers of Jesus.

Our values

Grounded In Scripture

When it comes to how we think about God, the world, and ourselves, we place the bible in the highest place of influence and authority—this is our foundation. The good news of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection is found throughout the pages of scripture, and this good news gives shape and meaning to everything we do.

Enjoying God

God is not an idea to be grasped, but a person to enjoy. There is a deep desire in every person to passionately delight in something glorious because we were made to enjoy God. Experiencing God in this way is not contingent on our circumstances. We seek to experience God’s presence and glory through all aspects of our life, in all seasons both good and bad,  and in all that we do as we agree with the Psalmist, “in your presence there is fullness of joy.”

Growing together

Following Jesus is not meant to be done alone. In Christ, we are brought into something bigger than ourselves. We are connected to a body of believers in order to encourage and exhort one another, to serve and receive, and to grow in Christlikeness and resilience as we pursue unity in Christ. We use the varied gifts God has given each of us to build up the church.

On Everyday Mission

Every follower of Jesus is a missionary. Therefore, we bring the good news of the gospel with us into every avenue of life, even the ordinary or mundane. Wherever we find ourselves, we want to be prepared for evangelism, generosity, acts of service, and faithful presence in the lives of those we encounter and the organizations we support.
