We welcome people from all walks of life, regardles of where they are on their spiritual journey.
We are not a building or a name; we are a community where people can hear God's truth, experience His love and grace, and be transformed by a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
We are learning how to do God's will on earth as it is in heaven:
- meeting with Jesus personally
- connecting with people meaningfully

- and serving our community tangibly
Leading People To Become Passionately Committed Followers Of Jesus.

What We Believe:

- We believe that Jesus Christ is God’s Son who died on the cross and rose again to purchase for us a place in heaven which He offers to us as a free gift, not because of our works, but because of His unlimited grace.
- We believe that the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God who created within all people a desire to seek out a relationship with Him. As we allow Him to, the Holy Spirit fills and empowers us as Christians, giving us the ability to live a life of faith, integrity, and gifted ministry.
- We believe the Bible is God’s Word to us, it is fully relevant for our lives today and gives us practical guidance for all aspects of daily living.
- We believe Salvation is becoming part of God’s family by accepting God’s gift of forgiveness, and being made eternally right with Him through an ongoing relationship of faith in Christ Jesus.
- We believe that Christian Living is discovering the peace and fulfillment Jesus Christ brings to us, as we yield our lives to His guidance and are empowered by His Holy Spirit.

That in the Non Essentials we have Liberty
That in all our beliefs we show Love..
