Vision
The vision is to share what God’s love looks like, in character and attribute, by sharing our faith stories of what Christ has done in our own lives. Our desire by sharing our stories is to give God the glory. As a result of hearing our stories, it is our hope that she will realize she is not alone in her journey and she will recognize God’s love and character, apply it to her own life and to grow in her faith. When we gather, we want her to feel His love.

Statement of Faith
The Bible: We believe the Scriptures of both the Old and New Testaments to be the infallible Word of God, the authority in faith and in life, and the verbal inspiration of God. Psalm 19:7-9, I Corinthians 2:13, II Timothy 3:15-17, II Peter 1:20-21, Revelation 22:18-19
God: We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Genesis 1:1-2, 26, 2 Corinthians 13:14, , Matthew 28:19, Luke 3:22, John 1:1-2
Deity of Jesus Christ: We believe in the virgin birth of Christ, His sinless life, and that He is true God and true Man. Galatians 4:4-5, Colossians 2:9, John 1:1-2,14, Luke 1:34-35
The Atonement - Christ's death for our sins: We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, and that with His shed blood He obtained for us an eternal redemption. We believe that He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of each person, that He hears and answers prayer, and that He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ. John 3:16-18, Romans 5:8, Hebrews 5:7, 1 John 5:14-15
The Resurrection of Christ: We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into heaven, and in His present life there as our high priest and advocate. Acts 2:32-33, Romans 8:34, 1 Peter 3:18
Condition of Mankind: We believe in the sinful nature of all mankind, and regeneration by the Holy Spirit is essential for salvation through repentance from sin and acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Psalm 51:5, Ecclesiastes 7:20, Romans 3:23, Ephesians 1:6-7, Titus 3:5
Salvation: We believe that salvation is the free gift of God, entirely apart from works, and is possessed permanently by all who have by faith received the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. Ephesians 2:8-9, John 1:12, John 10:28
The Holy Spirit: We believe that the Holy Spirit is a divine person and that He dwells in all believers. We believe that the baptism of the Holy Spirit is the sovereign work of God that occurs at the moment of conversion, whereby the Holy Spirit places the believer in the Body of Christ. Ephesians 1:13-14, Titus 3:5, Acts 1:8, 1 Corinthians 12:13
Christ's Return: We believe in the personal, imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ. Matthew 24:42, Matthew 25:13
Judgment: We believe in the resurrection of the saved and the lost, the everlasting blessedness of the saved, and the everlasting punishment of the lost. 1 Corinthians 15:12-32, 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9, Revelation 20:11-15
