Know God, grow together with God's family, tell others about the true God

  • We will love God with all our hearts, with all our souls, with all our minds, and with all our strength. (Mark 12:30, Isaiah 43:21, Romans 12:1)
    • Every day is worship. We are to live a life that is filled with the Holy Spirit, praising God and praying daily. (Ephesians 5:18)

    • We should work on building a personal relationship with God every day and truly get to know Him. (John 17:3)

    • All church members should participate in koinonias (small groups) and celebrations to worship God and get to know Him better.

  • We will love God's family and strive to grow to be like Christ. (Ephesians 4:13)
  • Even as we enter into God's family, we must place first priority on building a loving Christian home for our earthly family. Each Christian home is a small church. (Ephesians 5:21-6:4, I Peter 3:1-9)

  • We will participate in koinonias (small groups) to develop closer relationships with each other.

    • Activities
      We love, forgive, help and share with each other making use of the gifts we have received from the Holy Spirit. (John 13:34,35, Colossians 3:12-14, Acts 2:42-47, Galatians 6:2)

      1. Jesus' disposition: the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22,23)

      2. Jesus' behavior: the gifts of the Spirit (Romans 12, I Corinthians 12, Ephesians 4, I Peter 4)

  • We will love everyone and strive to help as many people as possible. (Mark 12:31, Matthew 28:18-20)

    • The outreach and other events undertaken by each of the koinonias as well as the activities of the indvidual members are to be led by the Holy Spirit.
