Who We Are<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We are lovers of God and people.
We are followers of Jesus, becoming more like Him every day and helping others to do the same.
We prioritize relationships of love and honor and believe every person is significant and valuable.
We seek God\u2019s revelation for life and mission through His Word and Holy Spirit.
We believe the Church is a light in a dark place, a city on a hill.
We believe we are a church that brings hope, life, and inspiration, to a world that so desperately needs it.
We see a multi-generational church passionately worshipping the true and living God.
We see a church full of broken people working out how to love each other deeply every day.
We see a church reaching out in sacrificial love to serve its community.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesus said, \u201cI will build my church and the gates of hell will not overcome it\u201d Matthew 16:18
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The scripture we held onto from the beginning is our vision scripture
\u201cTo live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.
Ephesians 4:1-3<\/p>\n\n\n\n
