Ministries Overview
Our mission revolves around the local church and the community at large. The ministries of our church are designed to reach into our community and encourage each other with the hope of the Gospel. We want everyone to be refreshed with loving fellowship from one another. According to Ephesians 4:11-16, it is Christ who gives gifted men to the church who are then responsible to equip the saints for the work of ministry (vs. 11-12). As often as possible, our ministries are designed to be led by the members of the congregation in submission to and as an expression of this philosophy. The passage also describes the purpose of our ministries, namely that each ministry ought to move our congregation toward a deepening understanding of the faith (vs. 13-14), a personal and practical knowledge of Jesus the Christ (vs. 13), and genuine, others-focused love (vs. 15-16). The ministries you find listed in the side bar are our attempt at melding practical twenty-first-century living with first-century theology and philosophy.
