Get to know us
To demonstrate the love of Jesus to every person we come in contact with, share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the world, and to equip the Saints of God for service throughout our city, state, and nation.
(John 13:34-35; Matthew 28:19-20; Ephesians 4: 11-16) King James Version
Our mission
1 Corinthians 13:13 Three things will last forever - faith, hope, and love-and the greatest of these is love. Notice hope stands in the middle of faith and love. Hope = "Confident expectation of good." Hope is a bridge between them. Love believes all things. Feelings follow faith when you see the unseen...

The Way We Worship
We are a local New Testament church and we worship God as the early Christians did.
Here are a few scripture references to help you understand why:
We stand when we sing - II Chronicles 20:19
We clap our hands - Psalm 47:1
We lift our hands - I Timothy 2:8; Psalm 134:2
We pray out loud - Acts 4:24
We play musical instruments - Psalm 150
We sing in English and we sing in other tongues - I Corinthians 14:13-14
You may hear someone speak out in an unknown language - I Corinthians 14:2
Then, you may hear someone speak out in English (this is tongues and the interpretation of tongues) - I Corinthians 12
Someone may fall to the floor while being prayed for - John 18:6; Acts 9:4 & Revelation 1:17
Someone may dance during the worship service - Psalm 149:3, Psalm 150:4
What We Believe
1.) We Believe: The Bible is the divinely inspired Word of God in the Trinity of God the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit.
2.) We Believe: All have sinned and come short of the glory of God and are in need of salvation. Salvation has been provided through Jesus Christ for all men.
3.) We Believe: The infilling of the Holy Spirit is an experience subsequent to salvation, and that it is the Will of God that all be filled.
4.) We Believe: Healing is provided in the redemptive work of Christ and is available to every believer.
5.) We Believe: The Church consists of all those who have received Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.
6.) We Believe: There shall be a bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust.
7.) We Believe: There shall be the personal, visible, imminent return of Jesus Christ.
8.) We Believe: In Water Baptism, the observance of the Lord's Supper.
