Our Vision Story

We envision everyone in this county hearing the Good News from the lips of someone in this church.  We see families, grandparents, parents, divorced, drug addicts, atheists, singles, college students, teens, and children introduced to a loving God.

We envision creative environments created to facilitate learning by using multi-sensory elements.  We see thousands of men, women, teenagers, children waking up on Sunday morning excited about and anticipating going to a clean attractive environment where excellence and creativity are immediately noticed.

We envision the Bible becoming relevant and meaningful to people for the first time.  We see people encountering God in a fresh way through teaching, videos, arts, music, and drama.  We see individuals, marriages, and families, being encouraged, strengthened, and empowered to make better choices through the practical application of the Bible.

We envision the fear of the first time melted by an extra caring touch and loneliness replaced with laughter.  We see acquaintances turning into deep authentic friendships as grace flows through every relationship.  We see a community that is unified as they freely give out extravagant and unconditional love.

We envision motivated volunteers, passionate about and eager to use their gifts to help, to serve, and to meet the needs of others.  We see every need being fulfilled by people who are willing to give of themselves, their time, and their talents.  We see a continuous flow of new ministries being started and old ministries being refreshed as every Christ-follower use his/her gifts.

We envision every leadership position being filled with a person who has a passion for God, character, a servant's heart and a leadership gift.  We see servant leaders reproducing servant leaders by pouring their lives into others through mentoring and coaching.

We envision life change seen in lots of smiles as people who were once hurting, depressed, frustrated, and confused have now found love, acceptance, help, hope, forgiveness, guidance and encouragement.  We see hundreds of people going out from us as career missionaries, pastors, and church workers all around the world.  We see every member empowered for a personal life mission in the world.
