OUR CHURCH

MISSION STATEMENT

Our mission is to cultivate a flourishing community that abides in Jesus Christ, proclaims the Gospel, and serves in the Kingdom of God.

CORE VALUES

Worship: We worship the only true God - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, called to live all of life for the glory of Christ Jesus. As we behold our Savior and are transformed by God’s grace, we are drawn into the Lord’s presence through worship in spirit and in truth.

Discipleship: We follow Jesus as lifelong apprentices, learning to abide in Him, love as He loves, and live as He lived. Our discipleship shapes every part of life and is nurtured through prayer and obedience to God’s Word expressed in Scripture.

Community: In Christ, we are adopted into God’s family and called to live faithfully in covenant community. As a Gospel-centered, invitational church, we honor the image of God in all people and flourish in relationships when we bear one another’s burdens, show hospitality, live sacrificially, confess our sins, receive Christ’s forgiveness, forgive others, and speak the truth in love.

Mission: We are a sent people, committed to proclaiming and embodying the Gospel in our neighborhoods and beyond, announcing the arrival of God’s kingdom in Kalamazoo and throughout the earth, as it is in heaven. Scripture calls us to walk in humility and to lay down our lives in service to Christ, His Church, and the world, especially the lost and the poor.
