To bring people to Jesus and membership in His family, develop them to Christ-like maturity, and equip them for their ministry in the church and their life mission in the world, in order to magnify God’s name.
These purposes are squarely anchored in our Lord’s two great mandates to His church:
The Great Commandment
“Love the Lord Your God with all your heart…soul…and mind. This is the
first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your
neighbor as yourself.” Matthew 22:37-39 (NIV)
1. “Love God with all your heart.” Worship
2. “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Ministry
The Great Commission
“Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey
everything I have commanded you.” Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV)
3. “Go…make disciples.” Evangelism
4. “Baptizing them.” Fellowship
5. “Teaching them to do.” Discipleship
Our motto is:
A Great Commitment To The Great Commandment
and The Great Commission Will Grow A Great Church! |
