About Us
 
Biblical, Authentic, Evangelical, Non-denominational

                 Jesus summed up our mission in:
- His Great Commandment: to love God with all our heart, soul, strength, and mind, and to love our neighbors as ourselves 
- His New Commandment: to love one another as he loved us 
- His Great Commission: to go into all the world to tell others the Good News, and to teach them to observe everything he commanded


Our Structure
 
• Senior Pastor (and other pastoral staff), who serves as our primary shepherd
• Elders, who oversee biblical, doctrinal, and spiritual matters
• Church Board, which oversees financial, property, and legal matters
• Home Group Leaders who serve as shepherd/teachers of our small groups
• Ministry Leaders (“deacons”), who oversee various areas of ministry
• Congregation, which is the final decision-making authority on some matters, providing consent and approval of some decisions by the elders and/or church board

Our Focus
 
We love meeting weekly for contemporary worship, biblical preaching, Bible Study, prayer and fellowship.  You can find a church home with us where you will have a vital part in living out The Principles of God's Kingdom to the glory of Jesus Christ.

Our passion
 
is to develop meaningful relationships with each other that reflect increasing levels of intimacy and unity. Not perfect relationships, but ones where we can admit our failures, ask and give forgiveness.
 

 
 
Our Constitution
 
 
"If a church is to glorify God and accomplish His purposes, it is vitally important that its members have a common purpose: shared beliefs and values (1 Cor 1:10; Ep 4:3, 13). These beliefs and values are expressed in:
• a respected authority structure of biblically qualified leaders - Article IV
• a common mission - Article V
• Christian traditions that assist in cementing our common purpose - Article VI
• standards of conduct for all followers of Christ - Article VII
• a common creed based on the absolute truths of Scripture - Article VIII"
