Mission & Values

Doing life together — gathering to encourage one another, share wisdom from Scripture, and carry each other through seasons of celebration and struggle.

Why we do it

Our Motives

Five commitments that decide what this church gives its time to.

01

Worshiping Community

We are a worshiping community because God created us and desires for us to be in relationship with Him and others.

Isaiah 43:21

02

Missional Community

We are a missional community because our world needs a demonstration of God’s forgiving and healing love in words and actions.

John 13:35

03

Inclusive Community

We are an inclusive community because following Jesus demands we overcome barriers of gender, language, race, class, age, and culture.

John 12:32

04

Generous Community

We are a generous community because of our gratitude for the giving nature of God.

2 Corinthians 8:7

05

Just Community

We are a just community because following Jesus involves confronting the world’s evils and restoring biblical truth.

Micah 6:8

How we know it is working

Our Measures

Not attendance. These are the three things we watch:

01When we are ministering with “all people” and not just ministering to “all people”.
02When our congregation is increasingly engaged in CROSS-training.
03When local community leaders seek our church for answers to community issues.
