Our Vision

FAMILY CHURCH

To build strong families by establishing them on the word of GOD, which is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path. To train our children in the word of GOD and secular education, that they will live and strive in a secular society. To train GOD fearing Husbands and Wives in the responsibilities and duties of marriage.

CHARISMATIC TRAINING CENTER

To establish a church as a training ground and homeland for the people to be taught the Word of GOD. To have a place of Worship, Fellowship and Praise. To train and unite a mature Christian army against the forces of Satan. To train Christian believers in the gift of the Holy Spirit. To equip and send forth laborers in to the fields of the world. To minister healing and deliverance from evil spirits and captive hearts.

WORLD OUTREACH

To have the Good News (Gospel) preached to the lost and unlearned. To evangelize the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, by using every means possible as given by the Holy Spirit. To create a mission minded congregation with hungry hearts to win the lost for Christ; foreign missions have just as much emphasis on it as inner city missions. We understand that there are no states or border lines established by man that will keep out the Gospel of Christ.

We’re not a church that stops at half the Gospel, we’re a full Gospel church!

Our Tenets Of Faith

WE BELIEVE:

The bible is the infallible word of God, inspired by God, written by holy men as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. (11 Tim. 3:16, 11 Pet. 1:20-21)

... there is one God manifested in three personalities, Father in creation, Son in redemption and Holy Spirit who teaches, leads, comforts, empowers, the believer and convicts the world of sin. (Gen. 1:1, 11 Tim. 3:16, 11 Cor. 3:17-18)

... the reality of Satan and his present control over unregenerate men. (11 Cor, 4:3-4, John 8:44)

... the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ. (John 1:1-3)

... in the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. (Luke 23:46-56, Luke 24:7-8)

... in the resurrection of believers unto everlasting life and unbelievers unto everlasting punishment in the lake of fire. (Mat. 25:41-56, Rev. 20:11-15)

... in obeying our Lord's Great Commission to go into all the world and preach the Gospel. (Mark 16:15)

... in living a holy and sanctified life, divine heating, casting out evil spirits, speaking in other tongues, and other spiritual gifts as given by the Holy Spirit. (Rom. 12:1, Mark 16:17-18)
