Vision Sunday 2023

“Vision is a clear picture of what could be, fueled by the conviction that it should be.”
-Andy Stanley

“Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.”
-CS Lewis

Our Mission: Helping people take their next step toward Christ…together!

Acts 2:42-47
And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. And all who believed were together and had all things in common. And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need. And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.

Four marks of a strong church

1. A learning church

Acts 2:42
And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching…

2. A loving church

Acts 2:42
And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship…

3. A praying church

Acts 2:42
And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.

4. A missional church

Acts 2:47
And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.

Every Christian is called to have a ministry to the church and a mission to the world.
