Our Mission
We want to #ENCOUNTER God. It is in the presence of God that we are made whole, redeemed, and experience what we need. We seek to meet with Him!
We seek to meet with God through song in corporate worship, through hearing the Word of God in preaching, through fellowship with God and one another in the sharing of Communion, and through lifting our hearts to the Lord in prayer. See our web site for services where we seek to #ENCOUNTER God.
We want to be #EQUIPPED by the Holy Spirit. To fulfill God’s calling, we need the Holy Spirit to prepare us for the work. Spiritual empowerment is necessary to fulfill the mission!
We seek to prepare believers to carry out the Great Commission through the power of the Holy Spirit. We offer multiple opportunities for children, youth, and adults to mature in their faith and grow in their knowledge of God through weekly classes and activities. Our web site has a list of current activities designed to #EQUIP you for the mission!
We want to #ENGAGE the world for Jesus. The Great Commission is a call for us to interact with the world around us in ways that lead people to an encounter with Christ.

What We Believe
We Believe…
…in one God—the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
…that the Old and New Testament Scriptures, given by complete inspiration, contain all truth necessary for faith and Christian living.
…that man is born with a fallen nature, and is, therefore, inclined to evil, & that continually.
…that the finally unrepentant are hopelessly and eternally lost.
…that the atonement through Jesus Christ is for the whole human race; that whosoever repents and believes on the Lord Jesus Christ is justified and regenerated and saved from the dominion of sin.
…that believers are to be sanctified wholly, subsequent to regeneration, through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
…that the Holy Spirit bears witness to the new birth, and also to the entire sanctification of believers.
…that our Lord will return, the dead will be raised, and the final judgment will take place.
