Vision |

Our mission is to impact and
change the world around us by spreading the Word
of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior to all people
and providing an opportunity for revival that will
spread throughout the nation creating an attitude
of discipleship and maturity leading to a
wholeness of the body of Christ.
Being built upon the foundation of the apostles
and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief
corner stone, our vision is to be obedient
children of the Living God through His Son Jesus
Christ; living pure lives that testify to the
world around us |
|
| It is our vision to be a
church and a people that minister to all. We wish
to have a healthy and vigorous means of
instituting personal growth in the life of every
believer - man, woman and child, encouraging the
exercising of personal & spiritual gifts. It is
furthermore our vision to carry tangible
ministries into the heart of the needy in our
community. May God�s vision be our vision until
our Lord comes again! |

The Lord's Supper-It's nature and purpose and as they
did eat, Jesus took bread and blessed, and broke it and
gave to them, and said, take eat, this is my body. And
he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave
it to them, and they all drank. And he said unto them,
this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for
many; and when they had sung an hymn, they went out into
the mount of olives.
Mark 14:22-25
Also I Cor. 11:26
For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup,
ye do show my Lord's death till he come.
