A community transforming lives and growing in love with Christ.
We understand that the work of transformation is never our own. It is always the work of Christ, but we also understand that Christ works in the real world - in real people and places. Transformation does not just include belief in God, but changes every aspect of life.
As we are transformed by Christ, our journey of faith leads us to grow in love. Growing in love means that we are growing in our understanding of God, growing in our service to the world, and growing in our welcome of others.
We live our mission through our values.
Kids & Youth.
We are always looking to the next generation and believe that our church needs to be a place where young people feel like they belong.
Belonging.
We believe not just in radical welcome when you show up the first time, but in finding everyone a place in community. To belong means that you are part of something, not a spectator but an active participant. This means that you know others and are known by them.
Our Community.
We believe that our community extends far beyond our doors. We want to be part of what is happening in the neighborhoods, be invested in our schools, be concerned about daily well-being, and be a vibrant partner for organizations in our area.
Authenticity.
We are a safe place to come as you are. Many organizations say that then try to make sure that you eventually fit their mold, but we want you to continue to be you. We are a diverse group of people, and we value all of our differences.
Discipleship.
Part of our commitment to growing in love is that all ages of people grow in their faith. We believe that discipleship happens in many different ways and through many different relationships but that your continued growth is important.
