We believe that God has gifted all of His people with gifts for ministry.
Through Stewardship Education, we attempt to place every member in ministries commensurate with their gifts, time and training.
As believers in the Priesthood of all Believers and the Communion of Saints, we attempt to be "The Caring Church," a people who care for one another and for our community, a people called by God, and set apart for this service by Him.
