We envision
ourselves as being less self-centered and more purpose driven
in accordance with the life Jesus Christ lived. It is our hope
that we will love God completely and our neighbors as ourselves.
We will humble ourselves and put God and others first. We will
be good news to the poor, pardon the prisoners, recover and heal
the sick, and set free those who are heavy laden.
|
|
|
We seek to
make disciples by welcoming the people intoe the body of Christ
and by encouraging and leading them to commit their lives to God
through the life-style examples of Jesus Christ.
