Why We Exist

To celebrate God's presence in worship

"Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only." Matthew 4:10

The Father seeks worshipers... "God is Spirit, and His worshippers must worship Him in spirit and in truth." John 4:23-24


To demonstrate God's love in our ministry

"By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." John 13:35

"There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord....Now you are the body of Christ and each one of you is a part of it." 1 Corinthians 12:4-5,27


To communicate God's Word with evangelism

"His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known...to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms." Ephesians 3:10

"For everyone who calls on the name of the lord will be saved. How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?" Romans 10:13-14


To educate God's people with discipleship

"Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity..." Hebrews 6:1

"Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." 2 Peter 3:18


"It was He who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ." Ephesians 4:11-13


To connect God's people through fellowship

   Why is fellowship important?
    1. I belong in God's family with other believers.
    2. I need encouragement to grow spiritually.
    3. I need accountability to grow spiritually.
    4. Christ is present when we fellowship together.
    5. There is power when people pray together.
    6. Fellowship is a witness to the world.
    7. I am obligated to every other Christian
   The One Anothers of Fellowship
    Serve one another
    Accept one another
    Forgive one another
    Greet one another
    Bear one another's burdens
    Be devoted to one another
    Honor one another
    Teach one another
    Submit to one another
    Encourage one another
