About Us
Our Mission
Our Values
Our values guide who we are and how we live as a church. They shape the way we follow Jesus, care for one another, and serve our community. Together, they reflect the heart of our mission and the kind of people God is calling us to be.
Our Beliefs
Why are beliefs important? Beliefs are the foundation of a Christian church—they shape its identity, guide its actions, and unite its community. Rooted in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, these beliefs give meaning to faith, provide moral direction, and offer hope of eternal life.
They influence how Christians worship, form relationships, and live out values like love, compassion, and forgiveness.
Shared beliefs also create a sense of belonging and inspire outreach, encouraging believers to serve others and spread the message of Jesus to the world.
God is the Creator, King (sovereign) of the Universe.
He is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He is love.
