Our Beliefs

Our Mission Statement

To help people know Jesus, grow in their faith and build meaningful relationships with others.

Our Goals

To see generations of believers growing stronger in their faith and sharing the love and truth of Jesus with others.

Our Foundations

1. There is a distinction between Biblical doctrine and human tradition. In essential beliefs we strive for unity. In opinions we respond with liberty. And in all things, we respond with love.

2. The Bible is the final and only authority. Where the Bible speaks, we speak. Where the Bible is silent, we are silent.

3. The Bible is the model for the church. Therefore, the leaders are elders chosen from the local church.
