ABOUT US

WHAT WE BELIEVE

Doctrinal Statement

On our Purpose – 

The church’s primary purpose is to worship God, build up the body of Christ, and evangelize the world (Matthew 28:19-20).  This means pointing all to the life, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus Christ and His free offer of redemption from the penalty of sin. (Romans 3:24; Ephesians 1:7)

On the Holy Spirit –

We subscribe to and promote the baptism in the Holy Spirit which equips us for ministry and enables living the Christian life boldly. (Acts 1:8; 2:17-18) 

On healings & divine miracles –

We believe that miracles and divine healing are for this present generation in the same way they were for the first century. (Luke 9:1-2; John 14:12)

On the return of Christ (Rapture) – 

Finally, we look for the imminent return of Christ to meet His bride, the true church, in the air and His subsequent bodily return to Earth. (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17; Acts 1:11)
