Our Purposes:

Five specific purposes guide the pursuit of our vision:

• Worship (Magnification) - To glorify God through personal and corporate worship celebrations
• Fellowship (Membership) – To connect people relationally for discovering church membership
• Discipleship (Maturity) – To commit members to develop habits of spiritual maturity
• Serving (Ministry) – To consecrate members for the service of God’s love through their SHAPE
• Evangelism (Missions) – To commission members to share God’s P.E.A.C.E. with the world.

Our Method

The method we utilize to achieve our purposes is to connect people relationally in a life circle of six to twelve people for the purpose of growing in Christ-likeness, loving one another, and empowering members to be fully functional in the ministry of L.I.F.E. and the mission of P.E.A.C.E.

Our Strategic Aims

Our membership development strategy is a four-phase process of making disciples in the relational contexts of small groups. The four objectives of our discipleship-making strategy are:

• SHARE: Cultivating the commitment to come and hear the callings of faith
• CONNECT: Connecting the comers relationally to others for spiritual growth
• SERVE: Committing those connected to serve the purposes of the body of Christ.
• LEAD: Commissioning servant leaders to lead a small group ministry of making disciples of others.

Our Message

We proclaim and commit to its seven-fold completeness–One body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God. We proclaim the exalted purpose of the kingdom–the reconciliation of humanity to God and to each other through faith in the redeeming work of Christ. We proclaim the blessing of discovering life in the kingdom of God as a direct accomplishment of the redeemer
