Our vision!
Our Church is a local expression of the body of Christ. We are
committed to the Christian scriptures - Old and New Testaments
- as our final authority for faith and practice. It is our purpose
to be involved in the spread of the gospel of Jesus Christ to
every tribe, tongue and nation, by use of all available means.
We believe that Christ Jesus himself is the head of the church
and, through the scriptures, has set forth the principles for
life in his Body, the Church. We include here our Vision, Purpose
and Strategy summarizing what we believe to be the biblical calling
of the Church.
Vision:
To cultivate a growing Christian Fellowship characterized by accountability,
responsibility, and submission to one another under the authority
of the scriptures, whereby we shall live out Christ's love not
merely in theory or speech but in action and sincerity. (1Jn.
3:16-18; James 1:22-27).
Purpose:
To be obedient to the Great Commission. (Mt:28:18-20) This involves
bringing people to Jesus, developing people in Christ-like maturity,
and releasing people to minister in Jesus' name. Win, build, send.
Strategy:
- Penetrating people's sphere of relationships
- Befriending them
- Introducing them to Jesus through exposure to
basic Christian Fellowship
- Leading them to faith in Jesus as Savior
- Bonding them in relationships to Jesus and other
believers
- Facilitating their maturity in Christ by discovery
and use of spiritual gifts in the context of an
ever-increasing network of basic
Christian Fellowship.
