Our Mission
Making and growing disciples of Jesus Christ through...
Worship
Worship is the foundation of all we do: as we hear God’s word spoken to us, and as we see his word broken for us, we are then nourished on him and remade into the Body of Christ. We seek to worship the Lord through excellent music, Gospel-centered preaching, and engaging liturgy.
Formation
Formation is the invitation to respond to grace by learning to love God with our entire being. We are committed to offering holistic programming that touches, heals, and equips each generation to follow Jesus Christ and love one’s neighbor.
Mission
Mission calls us forth as we respond to Jesus, who says, “As the Father has sent me, so I am sending you.” (John 20:21) Mission happens as we are sent out to be, like Jesus, poured out for others: the stranger, the poor, the widow, the orphan, and our neighbors. (James 1:27)
Formation Opportunities
Grow in Faith
Sunday Formation
During the school year, we offer Sunday School for all ages at 10:15 a.m.
Speakers and Special Events
We regularly offer special speakers, retreats, and other events throughout the year.
Wednesday Night Formation
Everyone is invited to join our optional Wednesday Night Dinner, followed by formation programs for all ages.
Group Formation
