"Loving God and My Neighbor.”
Luke 10:25-37
Open Hearts
Our hearts are full of love for God and our neighbors. Our service reflects Jesus’ love.
Open Minds
We all think in different ways. But when we work together to serve Jesus & our neighbors, we share a common goal.
Open Doors
Our doors swing wide, not just to let others in but so we can all get out to serve Jesus and our community.
Welcome: We believe all individuals are of sacred worth. We invite and welcome people to our church, and we strive to know and care about each other through fellowship and faith.
Worship: Worship is central to all we do. It is that place of first impression and lasting influence where we encounter God, renew our faith, and gather as a community.
Study: Discipleship is a process of lifelong learning. New insights are gained through the continued study of God’s word, with others, to broaden and deepen our understanding of the Bible and its meaning in our life.
Serve: As the heart and hands of God, we serve, in love, both inside and outside the church walls, as an important way to demonstrate God’s presence in this world.
