VISION & MISSION
Senior Pastor
J. Eric Kelsie, MDiv
Vision
To cultivate an inclusive body of biblical believers who continue to grow in Christ, as we love, serve, and fellowship with the community and each other.
Mission
God calls this church to be a witness for Jesus Christ, a creative model of Christian worship, a loving example of Christian fellowship, and a humble servant to the community, the nation, and the world in which we live.
In word and deed, we are committed to continuing Jesus’ ministry of spiritual and physical liberation to the disadvantaged, the weak, and the downtrodden. We understand that our role is pastoral, priestly and prophetic as we strive to heal personal hurts and pains, as well as challenge social structures and systems that oppress and that prevent people from realizing their full God given potential.
