Who Are We? 

WE ARE SPIRITUALLY ALIVE
We are more than a social gathering, we are the church of the LIVING
God. Faith filled prayer, passionate praise and worship, and strong
Bible preaching will always mark our community.
WE ARE A PEOPLE OF PASSION 
Church should be enjoyed not endured. There should be a sound of
laughter, a shout of praise, an AMEN in the room. We bring passion
to every meeting, project, and service.

 WE ARE LOYAL TO THE FUTURE
We will honor the past while doing whatever we can to reach the next generation. We
are always looking for an opportunity to empower and release the NEXT and the NEW.

WE ARE ALL IN
Willing to serve, go the extra mile, and do whatever it takes to see
people come to Jesus! We are ALWAYS willing to take the lead,
make the investment, and make the call.

WE ARE COMMITTED TO THIS HOUSE 
Jesus is building His church. We will use our gifts, raise our families,
and find community in the House of God.

WE ARE PEOPLE OF FAITH 
We lean in to all God has for us, honoring His Word and believing for
more.  We teach people to believe for and
receive the promises of God.

WE ARE JOYFULLY GENEROUS
God is good and has an amazing life for every one of us. This life does
not happen by taking, it happens by generously giving. Generosity is
our YES back to God. We will never shy away from showing people
that it is "better to give than to receive."

WE ARE A HOUSE OF HONOR
We highly value the people God has brought into our lives. We never
tear people down but lift them up. We believe GOD USES PEOPLE, this
means that we treat people with respect and honor.
Especially those who teach Gods Word.

THE HOLY SPIRIT
The presence of God distinguishes us, comforts us and empowers us.
We believe that the Holy Spirit is still moving in the earth through Spirit filled believers.
We believe that we need His power in our lives to be a witness to the world of God’s amazing love and care for us.

WE ARE a warm and friendly group of people who desire, with God’s help, to live the kind of life that brings honor to Him. We look to the Bible as our primary source for direction in our worship and our lifestyles. We are life-centered in our teaching and sensitive to the needs and concerns of others. We give people the opportunity to put their faith into practice through any number of avenues of service. We are honored to take our place among the many who are called Christians. We laugh and cry together, rejoice and grieve together, grow together and walk in faith together. We aim to be a family for all who love Jesus, the Nazarene.
