Our Mission Statement
We’re Building:
Up Christ
John 3:14-16— Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life. "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Strong Relationships
John 13:34-35— "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
A Congregation
1 Cor. 12:12;27 - The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. [27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.
Our Future
Philip. 3:12-14 - Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
