WE DESIRE TO BECOME LIKE JESUS.

We believe we are called to be witnesses of Jesus by sharing our story with others. When God saves us, we desire to become more like Him. We strongly commit ourselves to the teachings of God’s Word.  

We believe that discipleship includes replication and that we are to replicate ourselves with our faith, talents, passions, and gifts. A disciple is one who: worships Jesus, is being changed by Jesus, obeys Jesus, and teaches others to do the same.
