Growing deep in Christ, reaching wide in mission.
You might be wondering what we're all about? Simply stated, we're all about Jesus. You won't be met with shame, guilt, or condemnation. And we don't care how you're dressed or what candidate you voted for. We're all people in process - imperfect people with every kind of story imaginable, but with a passion to know and share Jesus.
Want to know the best part? No matter what you've been through or what questions you might have about God and faith, our church is a place where you'll find the love, grace, and forgiveness Jesus gives to everyone. Above all else, we want people to know Jesus.
Our Vision Prayer
O God, our Father, make us a body of people so transformed and empowered by your Word & Spirit that our communities, nation and world may see and know Jesus Christ as the way, the truth and the life.
Our Values
We are intent on following Jesus - worshiping him and being on mission for him in our neighbourhood, city and world. We're committed to being people who walk in a vital relationship with God and who are given over to living for him wherever he has placed us.
We value spending time in the Bible, personally and together, to continue to have the biblical story shape us and define our lives and our view of the world.
We value worshiping God personally and together, through song, prayer, the Lord's Supper, fellowship, but even more in how we live our lives and represent God in the world.
We value showing hospitality to everyone regardless of their ethnicity, class, age, or background, recognizing that just as God has welcomed us to himself through Jesus, we are called to do the same.
We value being witnesses to Jesus and his good news in the words we speak and in the things we do.
We value seeing the restoration and wholeness which God intends for all creation to continue to break into our experience as we pray for God's kingdom to come on earth as it is in heaven.
We value developing personal and corporate rhythms that are sustainable and enable us to flourish as followers of Jesus in every area of life.
As we seek to love people and make disciples of Jesus, we value practices that can easily be replicated and passed on so that everyone can become a mature follower of Jesus who can then point others to Jesus as well.
