Our Purpose, Core Values, and Mission:
Our Purpose is to love the Lord our God with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength, and to love our neighbor as our self.
We pursue our purpose together through our Core Values; these form the guiding principles of our lives and ministries.
Core Value #1. Teaching What is True – God’s Word
God’s Word, the Bible, is true for all people in all cultures at all times and is the only standard of truth.
Core Value #2. Obeying God – Worship
Our entire lives are for God’s pleasure. We view our worship as a comprehensive allegiance and obedience to God expressed in and through every aspect of our life.
Core Value #3. Communicating with God – Prayer
God wants to hear from His children. Our conversation with God is an expression of our dependence on Him in and for everything.
Core Value #4. Growing in Spiritual Maturity – Discipleship
God’s desire is to mold us into the image of Christ. We follow in the steps of Jesus and look to Him as our example.
Core Value #5. Sharing the Love of Christ – Building Bridges to Others

Core Value #6. Impacting All Generations – Strong Relationships
