Knowing Jesus & Making Jesus Known

Embracing the profound call of Philippians 3:10, 'that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection,' our core commitment is rooted deeply in Knowing Jesus. This commitment is not merely about knowledge in the conventional sense but an ever-deepening journey of personal faith and transformation. Every step we take brings us closer to understanding the depth of His love, His grace, and His purpose for each of us, fostering a deep and intimate relationship with our Savior

Yet our spiritual journey does not end with our personal relationship with Jesus. In tandem with our commitment to know Him, we are galvanized by the Great Commission from Matthew 28:19-20: 'Go therefore and make disciples of all nations...' This divine directive serves as a continuous reminder that our responsibility extends beyond our congregation's walls. Ensuring that Making Jesus Known remains our steadfast mission, we are fervently driven to share His transformative love with every corner of the world. We are called not just to be passive recipients of His love but active ambassadors, spreading His word, and inviting others into this life-changing relationship.

In embracing these twin pillars of our faith, we are perpetually moved to grow in our relationship with Jesus and encourage others to experience the same profound transformation. We invite you to join us on this exciting, fulfilling journey, for in truly knowing Jesus, we find our purpose, our calling, and our eternal hope."
