Description

Our Vision:

We exist to make disciples of Jesus Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit, to the glory of God the Father. As a church, our goals can be summed up in three words:

Know, Grow, & Go.

We are passionate about seeing people train to know Christ, train to grow in relationship with Christ, and train to go on mission with the gospel of Jesus Christ. To that end, all of our services, programs, and ministries have been designed to help you taste and see more clearly the treasure that is Jesus Christ. We are faithful to teach the Bible, in hopes that you would learn to apply its truths to your life.

Our Desire:

One of the ways we are seeking to accomplish this vision is through our family ministries. These ministries endeavor to help parents and children grow in their knowledge of Christ, their maturity in Christ and in their abilities and gifts in serving Christ. Not only will our parents and children know, grow and go but we hope that they will spread that vision to everyone around them.
