Our Mission
We exist to help people know, love, and serve Jesus Christ.
Our Vision
1. Christ-Centered Leadership
• Scripture: Colossians 1:28
“Him (Christ) we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ.”
As a Christ-exalting church, our leadership is committed to proclaiming Christ in every aspect of our ministry. Our elders are called to faithfully teach the Bible, warning and teaching with all wisdom. The goal is to present every member mature in Christ, reflecting spiritual growth and conformity to His image.
2. Faithful Living in Community
• Scripture: Acts 2:42
“They (the believers) devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.”
Our focus is on living faithfully according to God’s Word. This verse emphasizes the importance of living out our faith in community—gathering together, sharing life, and encouraging one another in our walk with Christ. This commitment shapes the communal aspect of our church life, ensuring that we grow together as a body in Christ.
3. Equipped for Ministry
• Scripture: Ephesians 4:11-12
“And he (Jesus) gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ.”
God’s growth plan for the church involves equipping the saints for ministry. Our church leadership—is dedicated to equipping every member of our church for the work of ministry. As our members are equipped through teaching, preaching, and shepherding, we serve one another and build up the body of Christ in love, fulfilling God’s design for His church.
4. Mission-Minded Discipleship
• Scripture: Matthew 28:19-20
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.”
Our church is committed to fulfilling the Great Commission. We are called to make disciples in our local community and beyond, sharing the gospel through intentional discipleship and everyday conversations. Whether it’s reaching out to neighbors, coworkers, or family members, we are devoted to inviting others into our fellowship and leading them toward a life-transforming relationship with Jesus Christ.
Our Values
1. Expository Preaching
We value expository preaching because we believe in the centrality of God's Word in the life of the church. The Bible stands as God's unique revelation, unveiling His very nature to His creation. Through studying the Bible, we can know God personally and His purpose for our lives. As believers, we rely on the Bible as the ultimate authority, guiding us in matters of salvation, spiritual maturity and effectiveness. We study the Bible to know God, shape our perspective and receive guidance from the Lord (Psalms 119:105, John 17:3; 2 Timothy 2:15; 2 Timothy 3:16-4:2; Hebrews 4:12; 1 Peter 2:2, 2 Peter 1:2, 1:20-21).
2. Depending on God in Prayer
Prayer holds a significant place in our priorities because we recognize that before we engage in any endeavor, we must first seek guidance and wisdom through prayer. Our mission to know, love, and serve the LORD is anchored in our dependence on God in prayer. We understand that without God's grace and guidance, our efforts remain incomplete and ineffective. Just as Jesus sought solitude to pray before taking important steps, we acknowledge the essential role of prayer in aligning our intentions with God's will and asking God to bless our ministry efforts. (Psalm 127:1; Matthew 6:6; 7:7; Philippians 4:6-7; Colossians 4:2; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18; 1 John 5:14)
3. Gathering for Sunday Worship
We highly value Sunday Corporate Worship as a church family. We recognize the immense value of gathering to worship collectively, as it allows us to deepen our relationship with God and with each other. Our belief in the significance of this practice is rooted in Hebrews 10:24-25, which underscores the importance of not neglecting our gatherings. Through Sunday worship, we align ourselves with God's Word, in order to worship God, edify one another, and evangelize the world with the gospel (Acts 2:1; Acts 20:7; 1 Corinthians 5:4; 1 Corinthians 11:17-34; 1 Corinthians 14:23; Hebrews 10:25).
4. Living Out the Call of Discipleship
We value helping people follow Jesus! We hold discipleship in high regard because we firmly believe that the enduring mission of the church is rooted in the Great Commission. As we aim to know, love, and serve, discipleship becomes the path through which we fulfill this mission. Just as Jesus instructed his followers to make disciples of all nations, we understand that nurturing and guiding others in their faith journey is not just a calling, but a way of embodying the core purpose of the church (Matthew 4:19; Matthew 28:19-20; Luke 9:23, Luke 14:25–33; John 21:17; 2 Timothy 2:2-3).
5. Actively Participating in Fellowship
We hold dear the fellowship among believers in Christ. An avenue to nurture this community is found in our Growth Groups. Our gatherings are crafted with intention: to nurture shared spiritual growth, encourage authentic bonds and live out the core values that define our church. By participating in these groups, we actively put into practice our central mission to know, love, and serve Jesus Christ (Proverbs 27:17; Acts 2:44; 1 Corinthians 1:9; 1 Corinthians 15:33; 2 Corinthians 6:14, Ephesians 5:30, Philippians 2:2, Colossians 3:16, 1 Thessalonians 5:11; Hebrews 10:24, 1 John 1:3).
6. Serving with Joy
We hold a deep appreciation for serving the Lord and our fellow believers in the context of the local church. This commitment is grounded in the teachings of the Bible, where we are encouraged to love and serve one another (John 13:34-35; 1 Peter 4:10). The local church is where we can best put these principles into action, as it offers a space to use the unique gifts that God has blessed us with. By doing so, we not only help others but also demonstrate the magnificence of God's presence in our lives (Matthew 20:26-28, Matthew 25:35-40, John 15:12, John 17:18, Romans 12:13, Galatians 5:13-14, Galatians 6:10, Philippians 2:1-4, 1 Peter 4:10).
7. Developing Leaders
We highly regard the task of nurturing emerging leaders. We actively look for traits mentioned in the Scriptures: qualities like humility, compassion for others, and the capability to guide others on the path of following Jesus. Our ultimate hope is for our leaders to mirror the integrity of the Apostle Paul, exemplifying traits such as honesty, diligence, a willingness to serve the church body, and to stand on the truth of God's Word (Exodus 18:21, Proverbs 11:14, Nehemiah 6:9, Luke 22:26, 2 Timothy 2:2, Titus 1:7-9).
8. Reaching the Next Generation
In accordance with the sacred teachings of Psalm 78:6, we hold dear the role of seasoned Christians as shepherds to the younger flock. Our devotion to this principle ignites our zeal to teach our children to know, love, and serve the Lord as well. As the Psalm reminds us, "that the next generation might know the commandments of God, the children yet unborn, and arise and tell them to their children." Therefore, we highly value the call to spread the good news, from one generation to the next (Deuteronomy 6:4–9, 11:13–21; Numbers 15:37–41; Psalm 78:6; Psalm 145:4, Joel 1:3, Joel 2:28-29, Matthew 18:2-6, Mark 10:13-16).
