We believe…
With God Nothing is Impossible – Luke 1:39
We believe that by grace through faith God changes people’s lives. Our supreme desire is to know Christ and be conformed to His image by the power of the Holy Spirit. We believe we will grow in our personal relationship with Jesus Christ by abiding in Him through His Word, prayer, fellowship, and by yielding our lives to the Holy Spirit who is at work in and through us as believers.
We believe love is the greatest virtue and demonstration of the reality of Jesus Christ. We are committed to show a Christ-like love to all people. Love should be exhibited in our lives by our words as well as our actions.
