STATEMENT OF FAITH
I hold to the faith of the Southern Baptist beliefs.
MISSION STATEMENT
Matthew 28:19-20 Jesus gave the command to: "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world."
It is my vision to lead a church into a well balanced ministry to fulfill The Great Commission. Encouraging each member to fulfill their calling according to God's Word.
I would like to see the church work together as a body of believers to meet the physical and spiritual needs of our community and our world.
