We believe that all people were created in the image of God and loved by Him equally.
We believe that to live in that image, we should all be striving to become more like Jesus and that this striving is a life-long journey of faith.
We believe that this journey is filled with struggles and challenges that look very different for every person. God is in control of the route taken to transformation. As a faith family this truth must be the foundation for the love that we express to one another.
We believe you were brought here for a reason and we celebrate your presence with love and expectation! You are wanted and welcomed here!
