OUR MISSION

Our mission is to engage people in the journey of life. The mission is established through three core values: Living in Christ, Growing in our Faith, and Serving our Community.

  • Living in Christ—there is no “true’ life outside of Christ.
  • Growing in the Faith—is a total trust in Christ to work in every life while empowering that person to become the person God intends.
  • Serving the Community—the natural result of spiritual growth is that people of faith will bear the fruit of serving others with their talents and gifts.
