What it says it does

Our desire is to be Christ centered in everything we do, and to follow Him through the power of the Holy Spirit, to grow in love, grace, joy and peace. We want to practice the New Testament teachings and doctrines, and teach them to our families. Our desire is to be service-minded,in the church and in the community as Jesus came to serve and not to be served. We believe our role as a church, is to worship God, support and encourage one another, with a compassionate spirit between us, so people can see and feel God thru our love and forgiveness of each other. Not ignoring sin, but dealing with is as it teaches in Matthew 18.
