Mission, Vision, Values of Church 

We exist to spread among all peoples a joyful love for Jesus Christ in all things for the glory of God. We will do this by striving to Treasure Christ, Pursue Community and Love the World. Core Values are found on our website.

What are some examples of God's grace that you have seen in your life and/or the life of your church?

We are a mess, we are loved, and we are still a church. That is grace. God has given us a love for the gospel, increases our love for our city, and for the nations. We are known for loving one another and loving the city. We are known as a church plant who is aggressive in planting churches among unreached peoples. I love this church. My family loves this church. Our eldership loves one another. God is saving people and rescuing people from addictions. He is creating a culture of rescue and redemption as people are being saved and reaching into areas of brokenness and poverty, fighting for the unborn, and adopting many orphans from around the world. He is making us racially diverse and I pray it continues. To Him be glory. Because it is all His grace.

How can we pray for you?

That I might set a pace to finish the race. That my joy in Him might be full. That God would get glory in my life. That I would desire his fame and not my own. That God would save 25 people this year and grow us by 100 not for us but to show off His power.
