Vision & Structure PDF
Our vision is simply to "change lives with Jesus' love" -- and we do that by starting with ourselves and moving outward --
changing our families, our neighborhoods, our communities - and eventually, our world!
Like most purpose-driven churches, we name the important building blocks of our ministry in particular way:
- Celebrating (worship in a joyful, life-grounding way)
- Cultivating (Christian education and life-long discipleship)
- Caring (ministry for those in and outside the church)
- Connecting (witnessing to Jesus and inviting folks into the body)
- Contributing (honoring God with our spiritual gifts and financial sacrifice)
We sum it all up in our goal statement:
To connect others to Christ, Cultivate hearts like Christ, and Celebrate life in Christ.
