Who We Are:
Revival, renewal, refreshing community of believers in Jesus Christ. We are a fellowship of men and women who have accepted the message of the Gospel, follow Christ as our Savior and Lord, and who seek to be empowered by the Holy Spirit. We are citizens of God's Kingdom who enjoy the company of fellow believers in worship, prayer, fellowship, and service. What We Do:
-Gather to worship and care for our metropolitan area.
-We understand that we are here first to worship and glorify God. Worship brings us into God's presence and becomes the fountainhead of our life and ministry.
-We further understand that we are here to bless and care for our community by being instruments of God's love and mercy flowing out to those seeking and hurting. How We Do It:
-Through ministries that are culturally relevant with doctrinal integrity, committed to our Pentecostal heritage, that empowers people for ministry and are sensitive to Christ's voice in the church, by establishing ministries that flow out to the community and the world. Instead we are contemporary in nature and innovative in our methods. In other words, we are a church that is willing to change. Yet, while culture changes, God's Word does not. We can and will change our methods when necessary, but the message is still the same. We appreciate our heritage that is a part of the Pentecostal movement. Our worship and our service is marked by this heritage. We are without apology, a Spirit filled church. We believe that all Christians are called, that all Christians are called to be saints, and that all Christians are ministers. Therefore, our goal as a church is to empower people to do the work of God. Our ministry seeks to be lay lead, rather than staff driven. Finally, we believe God's agenda for the world includes revival and refreshing. He is now working His plan in the world! We believe Christ is the head of the church and that through the Holy Ghost, He is communicating with His people. Therefore, we will listen attentively so that we can be part of what God is doing and can speak what He is speaking. We are compelled to be diligent and work with haste for we do believe that Christ's return is near.
