We believe a healthy church is a biblical church, and we strive to conform our lives to God’s Word.

Our Mission

Matthew 28:19-20closeMatthew 28:19-20 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (ESV) closeMatthew 28:19-20closeMatthew 28:19-20 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.

And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (ESV) summarizes what we are all about as a church - making fully-devoted followers of Jesus Christ. We accomplish this through a process: reach, worship, connect, serve, pray. It is illustrated in our church logo of a bridge.

Our Vision

  • We exist as a church to reach our community and our world for Jesus Christ.
  • We exist as a church to connect people with God in authentic worship.
  • We exist as a church to connect people to each other for encouragement and accountability.
  • We exist as a church to connect people to a place of service either inside the church in ministry or outside the church on mission.
  • As a church we are committed to undergird it all with prayer.

Our Values

  • We believe the only way to salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone.
  • We believe the Bible is the inerrant word of God, and it is our sole authority for our faith and practice.
  • We are mindful that people matter to God, therefore they matter to us.
  • We are unified by prayer and seek to be an international house of prayer.
  • We are committed to strong pastoral leadership serving as equippers of the saints to do the work of the ministry.
  • We are committed to family unity, understanding that the world knows we belong to Jesus because of the way we love each other.
  • We will never settle for low impact in our church, our community or our world.
  • We are not afraid to take risks and we fear missed opportunities more than we fear failure.
  • We believe a healthy church should embrace spirit-led change.
  • We are committed to innovation, creativity, and excellence in everything we do in order to glorify God.
