FAQs

  • Come as you are! You can wear a dress or a suit or a T-shirt and jeans. The church is here to help fix your brokenness by sharing the love of Jesus.

  • On Wednesdays, we have a service just for them at 7:00 p.m.

    On Sundays, teens ages 12 through 18 join our regular service in the auditorium.

  • We begin our service with worship songs. Shortly after, our pastor will come up to share a lesson from the Bible that will help you know more about God and His plans for your life. After that, we will have time to pray to God and take steps toward change.

  • If you’re a first-time guest, we'll have a VIP parking spot in the front by our grass field!

  • We are a part of a cooperative fellowship known as the Assemblies of God. This Statement of Fundamental Truths contains the 16 doctrines of the Assemblies of God. These are non-negotiable tenets of faith that all Assemblies of God churches adhere to. Four of these, Salvation, the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, Divine Healing, and the Second Coming of Christ are considered Cardinal Doctrines which are essential to the church's core mission of reaching the world for Christ.

  • 1. We preach the Bible, not just an inspirational speech. You leave feeling challenged.

    2. You know where your money is going.
    We report to all of our members who give so that they can see where their money is going. 

    We also take up offerings on the first Sunday of the month for missions. Missions is our top giving priority.

    We believe that you are blessed when you give to others; we also donate monthly to over sixteen organizations and over twenty missionaries.

    3. You can get to know our pastors on a personal level.

    4. We are kept accountable. We are a part of the denomination of the Assemblies of God. Our denomination has created an accountable structure of people to help our leaders stay on track. Thanks to this system of people, we can keep our church running smoothly and safely.

    5. Our congregation is dedicated to embodying Christ's teachings in our daily lives, prioritizing genuine faith, worship, & community, over superficial appearances, & cultural influences that morally compromise our image in Christ.

    6. We welcome all cultures.

    In a world of hate, God calls us to love everyone regardless of race/ethnicity, or heritage. 

    • John 13:34: “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.”

  • To make Heaven crowded! We want to see people surrender their hearts/lives to Jesus!

    We believe in reaching out to others and promoting a place where the Holy Spirit is welcome to move! We want to cultivate a space of worship, deliverance, healing, intercession, discipleship, evangelism, prayer, servanthood, hospitality, honesty, community, grace over legalism, healthy lifestyles, and faith-filled relationships.

  • You are not here by mistake. Your creator (God) has a purpose for your life. God loves us so much that He gives us the choice to love & follow Him. He doesn't force us into serving Him, but if we don't choose Him it leads to a life of suffering.

    The problem is we can't just be a good person to make Heaven someday. No matter how hard we try we will never be perfect enough to get to Heaven on our own, so because of that we need Jesus to take away all the bad stuff that keeps us from God (AKA: sin). Part of choosing Jesus is deciding to....

    • Repent:

      Ask for forgiveness of your sins, turn away from them, and commit to following God. He is your creator & knows what's best for your life.

    • Believe:

      Believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that He died for your sins, that He rose again, & wants you to share that good news with others.

    • Trust:

      Trust in Jesus Christ's death to remove sins and replace them with righteousness, and trust in Him alone as the only way to salvation. Without trust we are basically telling God through our actions: your sacrifice wasn't enough for me.

    • Declare:

      Declare with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead. 

    • Accept:

      Accept God's offer of reconciliation, and follow Jesus Christ as your Lord.

      You can pray this prayer: Jesus, I know I have sin in my life. I know that you are the person who can save me. Please forgive me. I choose to follow you & welcome you into my life. Amen.

      CONGRATULATIONS!!!

      There's currently a party in Heaven because you made the choice to be a part of God's BIG family. To understand more about your decision, please visit us in person soon.
