(Acts 2:44-46) Evangelism and Lost People – We wish to do our part in spreading the good news about Jesus Christ, to value unchurched and lost people and use every available Christ-honoring means to pursue, win and mature them. (Luke 19:10) Grace-Orientation to Life and Ministry – We encourage our people to live and serve Christ from hearts of love and gratitude rather than guilt, shame and condemnation. (Romans 6:14) Mobilized Congregation – We desire to equip all our uniquely designed and gifted people to effectively accomplish the work of the ministry. (Ephesians 4:11-13) Creativity and Innovation – We will constantly evaluate our forms and methods, seeking cultural relevance and maximum ministry effectiveness for Christ.
