MISSION
Our Church’s mission is the one given by Jesus called “The Great Commission:” ...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 28:19–20).
But what does it mean to be a disciple of Christ?
A disciple responds in three ways to Jesus' words in Mark 1:17:
1. Come Follow Me: A disciple hears Jesus call and repents of sin, placing his or her trust in Jesus.
2. I Will Make: A disciple daily surrenders to God's continual work of character transformation to make him or her more like Christ.
3. Fishers of Men: A disciple accepts Jesus’ mission to seek and save those who are lost (Luke 19:10), and actively serves as the Lord's hands and feet in this world.
VISION
Everything we do to obey Jesus falls into four Central Ministries, which are Worship, Belonging, Mercy and Mission (listed below). Our Principles and Culture (also listed below) articulate what we value as we engage in these ministries. We long to see every member growing in spiritual maturity and using his or her gifts as Christ has apportioned them. The Bible describes the people of God as a body with many different parts all working together to build up the church in love (Ephesians 4:11-16). We strive to help each member identify the specific ministries where God is calling him or her to serve.
Service Times
Sunday Worship
Our 7:45AM service is based on the 1928 Book of Common prayer communion liturgy. This service is intimate, contemplative and is appealing to many who have grown up worshiping using the classical prayers and language of the 1928 prayer book.
Our 9:00AM service is a traditional Anglican service based in the 1979 Book of Common Prayer tradition, complete with vested clergy, processional hymn and choir accompaniment. This service appeals to many families who enjoy a vibrant expression of liturgical worship.
Our 11:00AM service is our contemporary service and takes the four basic movements of the worship liturgy (gathering, word, table and sending) and presents them in a contemporary style. Music in this service is led by a band and many parts of the service are done in varying and creative ways.
