The Chapel
The Things That Move Us:
Worshiping God the Father, through Jesus The Son, in the power of the Holy Spirit is our number one passion. We give people the freedom to express their love to God through clapping, dancing, singing and playing of varied instruments. Our desire is that people will enter into God's presence in a very personal way, realizing God is rejoicing over us with singin
g as well. Interactive worship, where everybody participates, is what matters in the presence of the Father. It is truly a celebration! Come celebrate with us! Loving one another is a lifelong commitment and a priority in our prayers. We practice loving, accepting and forgiving one another forever! As part of our commitment to one another at The Chapel, we have purposed to not willingly hurt one another through gossip, strife or selfishness. We are not striving for conformity to a set of rules, but rather for unity in the Spirit. Jesus is our pattern, not any man or set of rules. Through thick or thin we purpose to love one another. Reaching the lost through sharing the good news of Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit is a vision and passion of ours that is equivalent to worshiping God and loving one another. We believe in "healing" evangelism. The Father brought each person to wholeness and completeness through Jesus Christ. That is good news! We also believe that the natural progression of salvation is discipleship. Discipleship is teaching the new believer, through God's Word, to love God through worship, to love one another through service, and to reach the lost through proclamation of the gospel and demonstrate God's love through good works. The Church:
The Church is a family of believers, it is not a building. It is not an organization. It is an army equipped in God's Word and empowered by the Holy Spirit whose mission is to meet needs in Jesus' Name. The Church is a force to be reckoned with. Ministry to the lost doesn't take place principally in our meetings, but in the places we work, live and play. Therefore our focus is not to "entice" sinners to come to our church through programs or gimmicks. Our focus is in equipping, empowering and releasing people to go out where sinners are. Ministries:
We believe every member has a gift. Our desire is to help them use that gift for the strengthening of the whole body, and the furthering of God's Kingdom. We don't sit around and "dream up" ministries; we encourage people to be responsive to the Holy Spirit's leading, and to step out and do His bidding. Holy Ghost entrepreneurship! Gatherings:
We meet on Sundays to celebrate the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We encourage families to worship together. We meet only once Sunday in order for members to pursue family time, fellowship and ministry. Membership:
Membership is involvement through the giving of our talents, time, money and relationships, not through signing a card. Summing It Up:
We are an imperfect group of people who are being perfected by God's Holy Spirit, so we practice having mercy and patience towards one another. Jesus Christ is the Perfect One, so He's the One we focus on.
