The City exists to help all people be with Jesus, become like Jesus and do the works of Jesus in our city.
We believe that the church’s primary mission is to make disciples and that discipleship involves a whole life reorientation toward being with Jesus, becoming like Jesus and doing what He did.
We believe regardless of age or stage of life; we have all been invited into such a lifestyle that we may experience the promise of scripture of “life in all its fullness” and our city blessed and renewed.
