VISION: To be Biblical followers of Jesus Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit, using our strengths creatively, offering healing, caring for and building our congregation, reaching out to younger families and the recently retired and supporting outreach beyond ourselves. We believe we are to be a cross generational Church, and we are starting to see that vision come true for us.

MISSION: To Know, Enjoy and Share Christ.

We believe our mission statement encapsulates the five purposes of the Church which Rick Warren in his book the Purpose Driven Church outlines.

To Know means discipleship. We will apply the teaching of Jesus and the scriptures to our lives.

To Enjoy means to worship. We will celebrate God's presence together as God's family.
It also means to have fellowship with God's people. We spend time together helping each other grow in the faith.

To share will mean evangelism. This is to invite people to accept God's Truth for themselves.
It also involves Ministry: We demonstrate God's love through service to other people in and outside the Church. This understanding of the Church's mission helps us evaluate what is important in to us.
