Our Core Values:
- Jesus Christ, the Son of God and Savior of all people. He should be loved with all our heart, soul and might. Loving Jesus is priority one.
- Others, to express and demonstrate the love of Christ to all people.
- Worship, Jesus Christ in spirit and truth through the means of authentic worship.
- The Bible is God’s revelation to all people, a guide for belief and practice, the Christian’s final authority. The Bible possesses the life- changing message of the love of God. It should be studied and applied to our lives.
- Prayer is the engine that runs the church. Nothing of any eternal value is accomplished outside of prayer. Prayer should always be the first thing of the church – the House of Prayer.
- Relationships that are based on authentic Christian love that offer acceptance, affirmation and accountability.
- Outreach is the first part of the Great Commission given by Christ to His disciples – it is the mission of the church to look outward to those who have never come into a life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ. It is the process of bridge building to a lost world.
- Discipleship is the biblical method of maturing the Children of God and growing the local church.
- World Missions is a part of the outreach of the church where the church enters into a partnership with foreign missionaries to spread the good news of the love of God around this world by prayer and financial support.
- Unity and love should characterize the fellowship of the church – knowing that we are most effective when in unity, demonstrating our love one to another.
- Ministry is what the church does to demonstrate their love for Jesus and Others. Ministry is the by-product of being equipped biblically and spiritually to serve others through the ministries of the church.
