About Us

Who We Are

At our church, we believe true growth is measured not just by numbers but by deepening our faith and commitment to biblical teachings. We thrive on heartfelt worship, uplifting music, sincere prayer, and powerful preaching that brings us closer to God and each other.

Through our Hands for Hope food pantry and dedicated volunteer work, we demonstrate our commitment to serving those in need. Join our loving church family, inspired by Jesus, as we encourage action, compassion, and unity in our journey of faith together.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: to share the love of Jesus, grow together in faith, and serve our community. Faith is more than just attending church—it’s about living out Christ’s love through kindness, compassion, and service to others.

Our Beliefs

In the virgin birth of Jesus Christ, that he is the Son of God and the son of man, that He came to save mankind from the condemnation of sin by offering His blood as an atonement and thus making its redemption available to all who believe in Him (Matthew 1:23; Luke 1:31, 35; John 3:16; 1 Corinthians 15:3; 2 Corinthians 5:21).

We believe the Bible to be given by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, infallible and God’s revealed word to man. 

We believe that scripture teaches that there is only one true and living God who has chosen to reveal himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 43:10; Matthew 28:19; Luke 3:22).

We believe God’s heart for compassion, restoration, and redemption is the core of our ministry (Isaiah 61:1-3).
