About Us
Through the leading of the Holy Spirit as people come, we are also able to guide you to connecting with your purpose by which you are then empowered to go out and impact the world around you.
Overview
First Thessalonians chapter 2 tells all about how to do ministry. It seems much of today’s church has skipped this teaching, but we aspire to follow the break down that Jesus, through Paul, left:
In verse 2, Paul says to preach the good news of the gospel courageously, even in the face of persecution. By this we understand that we must be brave in these final days. He then says to avoid impure motives and trickery (v. 3) and preaching to please people (v.4). We don’t need a sly self agenda to talk about Jesus… We just need to be real. We understand further from Jesus’ breakdown that we are not going to win everybody over when we preach truth, so we should not expect to. Our motive always is, as it should be, to please God (v.4) and not to receive praise from men (v.6).
Verse 5 says to avoid using flattery and to not be greedy. Verse 7 says do not be a burden and be gentle. Verse 7 also says to minister with great love, then minister with hard work (v.9). We are also to minister with holiness (v.10) and then, verse 11 says to encourage, comfort, and urge people to love God.
This is how we believe ministry should be done, and we endeavor to follow this formula.

What We Believe
1. We believe that the Bible is the infallible word of God and is written by Holy men under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit
2. We believe in the Triune nature of God; Father, Son and Holy Spirit and that all three are one
3. We believe man was created in the image of God, but was separated by sin through disobedience
4. We believe Jesus, the eternal Son of God, took upon Himself the form of a man by means of the virgin birth, yet retained His deity, being at the same time very God and very man
5. We believe that atonement for man’s sin was made by substitution through the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ
6. We believe in the resurrection of the crucified Lord, in His ascension into heaven, and His eternal Supremacy as God
7. We believe the Holy Spirit which indwells is the Promise of the Father unto salvation and is an endowment of power for service for all believers
8. We believe that the ordinances of the church, as commanded by Christ, are Water Baptism by immersion in Jesus name, the infilling of the Holy Spirit and partaking of the Lord’s Supper by those who are born again
9. We believe in the “Blessed Hope” of the Church to be the glorious return of Jesus Christ and the rapture of the saints to reign with Him in eternity.
