OUR MISSION
“I thank my God for your fellowship in the Gospel”
We accord to you a warm and sincere welcome to this church. It is none other but the House of God. We pray that you will sense His presence and that the fellowship of those with like faith will be most rewarding.
We are a committed evangelical teaching ministry. Accordingly, we purpose to be a vehicle through which individuals and families are led to an experience of saving faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and onto maturity in Him.
OUR VISION
Our vision can be summed up in three words
TEACH The love of God and foundational truths of the gospel. The believer’s relationship and obedience to Christ.
REACH The total man, body, soul, and spirit; through salvation. Bringing restoration of the covenant between God and man.
INCREASE In wisdom, in faith, in perseverance, in excellence. In a renewed understanding of selfworth and awareness of your inheritance in Christ.

OUR CORE VALUES
TEACHING. REACHING. INCREASING.
The foundation of the church rests strongly on prayer, teaching, study of the Bible, and praise and worship. Through the years, this house of faith has at times been referred to as “a spiritual hospital”.
