OUR MISSION: Preparing God’s people to do the stuff that Jesus did, so we can minister like Jesus anytime and anywhere.
OUR VALUES:
-
having a heart of God
-
being like Jesus in life and ministry
-
teaching our children and youth to live
and minister like Jesus
-
incorporating wounded and hurting people into the Kingdom of God
-
prayer as foundational in all we do
-
dynamic worship
-
Bible-based preaching and teaching
-
learning to live in the power of the Holy Spirit
OUR VISION is to be an equipping church where people are:
called into the kingdom
(evangelism)
equipped for ministry
(discipleship)
sent out for ministry
(mission)
As a result, we function like a mission center where we:
-
develop ministry teams that will provide opportunities for its members to grow in their ministry gifts
-
focus the priority time of our leaders on apprenticing others for ministry (at Good Shepherd & beyond)
-
develop ministry relationships with leaders and churches in other nations
-
partner with others who have similar values and vision
-
express our values by investing in people (rather than projects)
-
give priority to those efforts that will expand the Kingdom of God
