Our mission is to preach the gospel to the lost and those who believe and are baptized (
Mark 16:16) to be taught to be disciples of Jesus christ (
Matthew 28:18-20).
John 14:15 "If you love me you will keep my commandments."
Vision Statement

We believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son.
That He was born of the virgin Mary.
That He grew in stature with God and man.
That He lived a pure, sinless life.
That He was crucified at the hands of men.
That He rose again on the third day.
That He ascended into heaven.
That He will one day return to earth to claim His own at God's command.
That He left us His wonderful plan of salvation in His infallible word.
Hear | Romans 10:17 | Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ. |
Believe

Repent | Acts 2:38 Luke 15:7 | Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. |
