The
Mission
To build a
church through disciplineship in accordance with the Word of God
committing ourselves to Worship, Witness, Service and Fellowship. "Reaching
Inward, Outward, Upward = IOU"
Inward
for the purpose of edification, coming together to build up and make
strong the body of Christ. Provide teaching that is biblically sound and
relevant to life. We envision being a ministry where we accept one another
and are accepted, love and are loved, encourage and are encouraged,
forgive and are forgiven, serve and are served. We envision helping all
people—youth as well as adults through a variety of ministries. We
envision developing people to spiritual maturity through Bible studies,
seminars, retreats, and workshops.
Outward
for the purpose of evangelism, we envision carrying the gospel message to
the unsaved. We envision sharing the good news that Jesus saves throughout
our local community and the surrounding Virginia, Maryland, DC, area. Our
pursuit includes reaching those who have stopped attending, or never
attended a church. We desire to grow as God prospers us and uses us to
reach a lost and dying world.
Upward
for the purpose of worship, we envision that our worship services will be
creative, inspiring, and uplifting. We envision a Sunday morning service
where songs of praise and adoration are offered unto the Lord, and the
gospel message is proclaimed. We envision a worship service where the
praises go up and the blessings of God come down. We envision the spirit
of the Lord moving freely in our mist where hearts and minds are set free.
