About
Why We Exist
We exist to bring people into a LIVING, GROWING & FRUITFUL relationship with the LORD Jesus Christ and with His Church.
It is our desire as a church body to help you discover the God of creation and of the Bible. Picturing how you and your family fit into a church can be challenging. We want to ensure that you do not feel in any way pressured to make this your church home. Our hope is to help you discover a living relationship with the King of Kings and a connected relationship with other believers.

Eph 5:22-27 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. 23 For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. 24 Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, 27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.

Phil 2:5-8 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.

1 Peter 5:1-3 The elders who are among you I exhort, I who am a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that will be revealed: 2 Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly; 3 nor as being lords over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock.
1 Tim 3:1-2 Qualifications of Overseers

These ministries are local, national and global.
