Our Mission
We are a group of people focused on living the life Jesus calls us to and sharing His love with others.
Our Vision
Worship
We are designed to respond to God’s presence with worship and, as we do so, we are continually transformed into the likeness of Jesus. Worship doesn’t just happen in a church service, it is a lifestyle of loving God expressed through many different ways.
Community
Building a community is done through Life Groups, Women of Grace and Men’s Ministries. These groups are for building relationships, learning together and supporting each other towards their fullest potential. We believe in being honest and transparent, so we can come alongside those we are choosing to do life with. An unbreakable bond is made as we allow other into our lives.
Teaching
Teaching the Word with goal of empowering believers of all ages to live out their faith at home, work, school, everywhere they go. We want all to know their identity in God, experience freedom and healing, and discover their gifts and callings.
Demonstrating
A true commitment to love Jesus is to make a commitment to love others. Jesus came that people would be set free and transformed. We are to carry on the ministry of Jesus to those around us, extending the Kindgom.
