- About Us -
Vision
I envision God changing the lives of his people in a real and everlasting way that leads them into the knowledge and revelation of who they are in Christ Jesus. And, as a result, establish a personal relationship with Him.
I envision the church, going “beyond the walls” to Reach and Teach All Nations (people), about the Kingdom of God, and the things of God, and to live a life fit for the Kingdom.
“And ye shall seek me and find me when ye shall search for me with all your heart” Jeremiah 29:13 (KJV).
Mission
Our mission is to share in the responsibility and privilege of proclaiming the gospel of our Lord and Savior. Our daily goal is to reach the least, the last, and the lost….. And to provide help while giving hope and make disciples of ALL His people!
Matthew 28;19-20 (KJV)
19 Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
“Our story should include Jesus’ story. We cannot have a story without Him, because His story is all about us”
