Vision Statement
"Providing teaching where followers of Christ can learn and grow into mature disciples."
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.” Matthew 28:19-20a.
Mission Statement
"To provide a place where the life changing Gospel is proclaimed, unashamedly and uncompromised."
11 So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, 12 to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Eph. 4:11-13
Additionally, provide a fundamental healing environment where at the core is unconditional love for each other is expressed.
“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:34-35.
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 1 Corinthians 13:1
Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for the one who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the Law. Romans 13:8.
The end result of discipleship and the expression of unconditional love will be a church built on solid ground.
14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. 15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. 16 From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work. Ephesians 4:14-16
Counselling Center Vision
As part of the church’s outreach to the community, church founder Dave Pappas seeks a strong Bible based counseling center. This will be geared to minister to people both inside and outside of the church setting. No matter what age, whether married, separated, single, divorced, or widowed This outreach program will be offered free of charge. Accepting only donations, no one will be turned away. Perhaps the church community and those outside the church will consider financial contributions to this program. The end result will be a powerful impact on the community, making for a more positive and constructive group of citizens. Counselors will either be paid trained church staff or volunteers from the church or from the church community. If the person’s counseling needs go beyond the scope of the church's expertise, they will be directed to treatment centers in the community who can best meet their needs.
