The arena for our ministry …
Our church – Our church is a racially, socially, and theologically diverse community of faith. We are all called as people who need our hurts healed and our hopes reaffirmed.
Our neighborhood – Our neighborhood is a changing, growing, multi-cultural, exciting place to live and work. We see our neighborhood as a dynamic place filled with opportunity to minister in the name and spirit of Jesus Christ.
Our world – Ministry begins in our community and extends into all the world.
These concepts are the heart of the vision that follows. We invite you to share in this exciting call to the 21st Century Ministry with us!
