Jesus entered into our dark, broken world in order to save it from within (John 1:1-18). He brought light to where there is darkness, healing to where there is hurt, and life to where there is death. And he tells his followers to carry on the mission he started! Three words capture the heart of our mission:
Connect – building a church community of God-loving, other-centered, mission-driven Christ followers. Grow – becoming more like Jesus in how we live our lives, what we care about, and what we love. Reach – extending ourselves beyond our comfort zones to bring healing into the lives of people, both in our community and around the world, in Jesus’ name.
We want to become like Jesus in the community of Jesus so we can live like Jesus in a world that needs Jesus!
