ABOUT US

Our congregation comes from many different parts of the world and from many different walks of life, but we are all united by our passion and love for Jesus and His people.  

We believe that loving God
leads to loving and serving people, which leads to leading people back to loving God.  


From our services to our life groups, and from our kids’ ministries to our missions trips, our desire is to love, serve and worship God with all that is in us

and to love our neighbors as ourselves

(from Luke 10:27).

These core values have been shaped by our rich history of great co-workers and energy; always pressing forward in our call to love God and love others and share Jesus!
