THE MISSION

                                     
Our mission comes from the Greatest Commandment, and the same mission Jesus gave his followers: Love God, Love People, and teach people how to follow Jesus!

THE VISION

                                      
We'll see our region transformed by the life-changing reality of the gospel, as people come to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior, grow in faith, and go make an impact by His power at work within them!

OUR VALUES

                                     
1. We are a connectional church. We are strengthened most by our relationships based on truthfulness and grace.
2. We believe our mission drives everything we do.
3. We proclaim a grace that is free.  Jesus said the crowning work of authentic ministry is this:  when the poor have the Gospel brought to them.  Hence, the destitute and disenfranchised of the world deserve our particular care.
4. We strive to make the message of the Gospel relevant to our culture by remaining faithful to GOD while showing love and sensitivity to the world.
5. We accept all who come to us, seeing the most desperate sinner with the potential to become a whole and devoted follower of Jesus Christ.
6. We see smaller groups within the larger body of Christ as the best environment for birth, mentoring, encouragement, and care of believers.
7. We view our local church as a mission outpost.  Our pastors are appointed not just to a local congregation and building, but to the evangelization of whole communities, towns and cities.
8. We see ourselves as an apostolic movement.  We are a “sent” people, charged with the task reaching new territories and new populations of people with the Gospel.
9. We are Wesleyan in our doctrine and in our practice.
10. We teach God’s Word (the Bible) as our rule for life and practice.
11. We are to be a holy people.  Our conduct and our teaching are to reflect the holiness and love of God.  We seek nothing less than the healing of mind, body and soul of all who come under our care.
