Our vision is to lead people into a life that is completely connected; firmly rooted in our love for God and fully expressed through our love for others. This is lived out in relationships as we Gather, Grow, & Go.
Here’s What We Mean by “Completely Connected”
Firmly Rooted in our love for God…
“Apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5
“Apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5
Fully Expressed through our love for others…

We are all called, in connection with our brothers and sisters in Christ, to a life of holiness through spiritual formation. Spiritual formation is a process of being conformed to the image of Christ for the sake of others. Our individual task is to allow the Holy Spirit to do His work in us, so we may go and be Christ to the world.
It is the role of the Church, in all its avenues of influence, to lead people on this pursuit of holiness (Spiritual Formation) by constantly telling the story of God (Spiritual Theology), nurturing spiritual relationships (Spiritual Community), and standing firm against injustice while proclaiming love above all else (Spiritual Mission). Spiritual formation must be at the core of the Church.
Ministries of the Church should not exist independently of each other nor be disconnected from the larger vision. They are all expressions of spiritual formation. The expression may change based on context (age level ministries), but we must never lose sight of the purpose for our existence in preparing Christlike disciples to bring about the Kingdom of God in this world.

CLOSING PRAYER
O gracious Father, we recognize our frailties as humans and our natural tendencies to live our lives completely disconnected; putting other things before our love for You, and allowing our selfish ways to blind us of our desperate need for deep, spiritual relationships with others. As we begin this new journey together, help us to intentionally live our lives completely connected; firmly rooted in our love for You, and fully expressed through our love for others. May our love for You take first place in our hearts, our thoughts and our actions, and may our love for others help to conform us into Your image. May we love others so fully, that we prove to the world that we are your disciples. In the power of Your Spirit, alive and working in us. Amen.
