• We value prayerfulness
We believe that God desires his people to pray and that he hears and answers prayer. Prayer changes people - and changed people change things. We are committed to bathing our lives and activities with prayer with the understanding that nothing significant or lasting occurs apart from it.
Matthew 7:7-11; James 5:13-18

Matthew 28:18-20; Ephesians 4:12
• We value gracious generosity
We are committed to living out the dynamic spirit of the cross through selfless, sacrificial, and liberal acts of giving. We believe that it is not only an act of worship but our responsibility to bring tithes and offerings from our substance and freely give ourselves in service to others.
2 Corinthians 8:7-15; 2 Corinthians 9:6-8; Malachi 3:10
• We value unity and teamwork
We are committed to serving God with oneness of purpose and singleness of heart, pursuing life-changing relationships with those gifted by God to lead us and with one another in the church. We hold the sincere conviction that Christ cannot be faithfully represented to others by a strife-ridden and divided church.
1 Corinthians 1:10,13; 1 Corinthians 12:27; Heb. 13:17; Romans 12:10
