Core Values

Jesus is the supreme embodiment of God’s grace.  Through his extraordinary life, sacrificial death, and triumphant resurrection, he reveals the path to a deeply faithful existence.

The Bible is God’s inspired message to us, giving us the most important knowledge about who God is and what He is like.

·  Love is not merely an emotion or feeling but a selfless and sacrificial action. It is demonstrated through compassion, kindness, forgiveness, and putting the needs of others before our own. The ultimate example of love is found in Jesus Christ, who gave His life for humanity out of love. As followers of Jesus, we are called to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind, and to love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:37-39). 

·  Grace is a central concept in Christianity, referring to the undeserved favor and mercy that God extends to humanity. It is through God's grace that we are forgiven of our sins and reconciled to Him. Grace cannot be earned or achieved by our own efforts; it is a free gift from God. As followers of Jesus, we are called to extend grace to others, showing kindness, forgiveness, and compassion, just as God has shown us grace (Ephesians 2:8-9, Colossians 3:12-14). 

·  Service is an act of humility and love toward others. Jesus taught His disciples that true greatness comes from serving others, just as He Himself came to serve rather than be served (Mark 10:45). As followers of Jesus, we are called to serve others selflessly, using our gifts and resources to meet the needs of others, both within the church community and in the world. Service is an expression of our love for God and our commitment to follow Jesus' example of servant leadership (Galatians 5:13, 1 Peter 4:10).
