Theme for the Lenten/Easter Season: The Real Story
We believe the CHURCH IS THE BODY OF CHRIST ON EARTH TODAY! Jesus established the church and it exists to perform God’s will on earth. Believers are to invest themselves in the life and work of the church. (Matthew 16:17-18; Acts 2:42; 1 Corinthians 12:27)
The Church is a purposeful community of gathered believers following The Jesus Way together.
PERSON – Jesus of Nazareth is the Messiah, the Son of God, and the Head of the Church!
PETER – Peter was the spokesman for the Disciples on numerous occasions.
PURPOSE – The Church was established by Jesus to carry out His heavenly mission on earth.
POWER – Jesus has empowered the Church to accomplish His mission.
FLOURISHING – Living life as God intended!
