Our Priorities

Worship: Reaching Up

Fellowship: Reaching In

Discipleship: Reaching Ahead

Evangelism: Reaching Out

Worship is all of us responding to all that God is. It is not dull or boring. It is celebrating life in Christ and experiencing God’s presence in our lives. Through praise, song, prayer, and relevant preaching, our lives are transformed.

Fellowship is sharing our lives together in the Spirit of Christ. It is love in action by meeting needs and making lasting friendships. It is building God’s family. It is making time for each other.

Discipleship is becoming more like Christ. It is learning, growing, and changing under the Lordship of Jesus. It is becoming mature. It is bringing wholeness to our lives and relationships.

Evangelism is reaching out with love and truth to our neighbors, community, and world. It is spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ. It is building God’s Kingdom by training and sending out those who are ready to be God’s workers. It is serving the world God’s way.

How To Know God Personally

Jesus Christ said, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” No one is born a Christian. The Bible says that we are by nature separated from God.

Have you ever sensed an emptiness inside your life? God says the reason for the emptiness is sin. “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” That emptiness can never be filled until we admit that we are sinners, recognize a need for help from our Creator and cry out to God for help.

God’s gift for us, which everyone must receive individually, is forgiveness of sin through His Son, Jesus, who died in our place. “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.”

Jesus Christ invites you to start a new life, simply placing your trust in Him. Will you receive the free gift? Jesus said, “To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life.”
