COMMITMENT, COMMUNITY AND CALL

Our Christian mission is defined by commitment, community and call.

Our Christian mission is focused on our commitment to proclaim the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  Our commitment defines our relationship with God and people because of what we believe.

1. COMMITMENT. We are therefore committed to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

2. COMMUNITY. Our Christian mission must help us to form our community of faith.  Our community is the fellowship of all believers.  Our community explains that we truly belong.

3. CALLING. Our Christian mission must help us fulfill our calling. Our calling is the summary of our lifetime goals as disciples of our Lord Jesus Christ. Our calling explains what we should do to truly bless God’s children and creation.
