The Mission
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18-20)
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” (Acts 1:8)Christ Seminary

The Vision
“Missions exists because worship doesn’t. Worship is ultimate, not missions, because God is ultimate, not man. When this age is over, and the countless millions of the redeemed fall on their faces before the throne of God, missions will be no more.” John Piper
“Every saved person this side of heaven owes the gospel to every lost person this side of hell.” David Platt
“Expect great things from God, attempt great things for God.” William Carey
“The Great Commission is not an option to be considered; it is a command to be obeyed.” Hudson Taylor
“His authority on earth allows us to dare to go to all the nations. His authority in heaven gives us our only hope of success. And His presence with us leaves us no other choice.” John Stott

Sunday School
Our Sunday School classes meet at 9:00 on Sunday Mornings. We have classes available for all age groups, including a nursery. We meet as small groups and study the Scriptures, share prayer requests, and cultivate fellowship and friendship with others in the Body of Christ. Please reach out to us if you would like to join one of our classes or see our Sunday Morning Greeters to find your class.
Women's Ministry
The women's Bible study currently takes place in Sunday School as well as with our Judea Partnership Churches monthly. With a heart for equipping women with God’s word, our women’s ministry offers bible studies, book discussions and other events throughout the year. We want to help women grow in godliness, in whatever stage of life they are in, so that they may reflect Christ to others. We encourage fellowship with each other through discipling, Titus 2 mentoring and just doing life together whether it be in our own kitchens or in serving with each other in the church’s kitchen.
