Our Values:


To Grow Intentionally
Acts 2.46-47
“They worshiped together at the Temple each day, met in homes for the Lord's Supper, and shared their meals with great joy and generosity—all the while praising God and enjoying the goodwill of all the people. And each day the Lord added to their group those who were being saved.”


To Care Like a Family
Ephesians 2.18-19
“Now all of us, both Jews a

nd Gentiles, may come to the Father through the same Holy Spirit because of what Christ has done for us. So now you Gentiles are no longer strangers and foreigners. You are citizens along with all of God's holy people. You are members of God's family.”


To Serve Globally
Jesus said in Matthew 28:18-20
"I have been given complete authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age." To Deepen our Life of Worship
Romans 12.1
“And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will accept. When you think of what he has done for you, is this too much to ask?”


To Leave a Godly Legacy
2 Timothy 2.2
“You have heard me teach many things that have been confirmed by many reliable witnesses. Teach these great truths to trustworthy people who are able to pass them on to others.”

Pain has a purpose - it drives us to God when nothing else will. Sometimes our greatest struggles become our greatest teachers, leading us to discover that Jesus is truly all we need. 🙏

Prayer doesn't have to feel overwhelming or routine when we follow the pattern Jesus gave us. When His disciples asked Him to teach them to pray, He responded with specific words and a clear structure - what we call the Lord's Prayer. This pattern serves as both exact words we can pray and a model for our personal prayer life. Following this structure helps us develop consistent, correct, and complete prayers that align with God's heart. Each element addresses different aspects of our spiritual growth, from trusting God as Father to seeking His kingdom and acknowledging our need for daily provision and forgiveness. By committing to pray through this pattern regularly, we allow God to transform the hidden areas of our lives and shape us more into Christ's likeness.

What happens when everything you care about in this world is gone? 🤔 Jesus knew we'd face this reality, which is why He taught us to seek His kingdom first. When we get our priorities right through prayer, everything else falls into place - including our ability to forgive others. 🙏

Many believers struggle with knowing what to say when they pray, feeling either overwhelmed by the vastness of communicating with God or trapped in repetitive routines. When Jesus' disciples observed His powerful prayer life, they made a simple request that changed everything: Lord, teach us to pray. His response wasn't theoretical advice but practical instruction - specific words to say and a clear pattern to follow, known today as the Lord's Prayer.

This prayer pattern serves multiple purposes in our spiritual development. It provides consistency for those whose prayer lives tend to be sporadic, correctness for those who might pray with wrong motives, and completeness for those who want prayer to be more than just asking for things. Each element of the prayer - from acknowledging God as our Father to seeking His kingdom, asking for daily provision, practicing forgiveness, and requesting protection from temptation - addresses different aspects of our spiritual growth and aligns our hearts with God's will.

The transformative power of this pattern lies in its ability to address what could be called our shadow - those hidden areas of untamed emotions, impure motives, and damaged parts of ourselves that sometimes surprise us with ugly reactions. As we consistently follow Jesus' prayer pattern, God performs spiritual surgery on these areas, gradually shaping us more into Christ's likeness. The journey begins simply: find a regular place and time, start praying through the Lord's Prayer daily, build consistency gradually, and allow God to use this pattern to transform your life from the inside out.

We are grateful for his compassion, his servant's heart, and the way he genuinely cares for people. He has a unique gift for making others feel seen, valued, and loved. And of course, we can't forget his quick wit and sense of humor that keeps us smiling and laughing along the way!

If Jesus, the Son of God who performed countless miracles, made time to pray - shouldn't we? The disciples saw something powerful happening when Jesus withdrew to speak with the Father. They knew prayer made a difference in His life. The question is: do we believe it makes a difference in ours? 🙏
