Get To Know Us

Why We Exist

KNOW GOD

We consider reaching people who do not know God personally to be one of our greatest responsibilities. The church does not exist for itself, but for the world around it.

KNOW FREEDOM

Freedom happens in the context of relationships, and relationships are best developed in groups.

KNOW PURPOSE

Leadership is influence. Nothing more and nothing less. Leadership is about influencing others for a worthwhile cause. It is not about position or titles; it is about discovering our area(s) of influence and making the most of the opportunity.

MAKE A DIFFERENCE

We have been given an opportunity to make our lives count for all eternity as we find, develop, and fulfill our God-given purpose.

Weekend Services

Each of our services begin with half an hour of worship. Following this time, children are dismissed to their ministry areas. Children need to be checked in at the child check-in kiosks in the lower lobby before the start of the service. After the children are dismissed, we highlight community testimonies and dive into the message. We provide a brief ministry time at the end of the service.
