Our Story

Forty-seven years
of grace.

From twelve families to a family of thousands — every chapter has been an answered prayer.

Mission

Helping people know Jesus, grow in faith, and serve our community with love.

Vision

A city renewed by the gospel — where every neighborhood has a hopeful, generous, and prayerful church nearby.

What We Believe

The historic Christian faith as expressed in scripture and the ancient creeds. Christ crucified, risen, returning.

Church History

1999
Sending on mission

First international mission trip; partnerships in Kenya and Guatemala begin.

The renovation

The sanctuary was expanded to 1,200 seats with a new prayer chapel.

Come and see.
