OUR PASTORS, Ben & Rose
Jesus is the Reason
"We are not religious, we are righteous because of Jesus, and like Jesus, we love people and want to see them saved from sin, grow, heal, and become the people God originally designed them to be and to become. If you allow Him in, you will come to find that God loves you, sacrificed Jesus for you, and has a specific plan to bring you life".
Our Vision
To influence the transformation of the world by accepting who Jesus Christ is, by knowing who we are, & by living life according to the wisdom & power that works in us to establish Heaven on Earth.
Our Mission
To teach everyone to believe in Jesus Christ, to instruct them in the knowledge of their true identity in God, to encourage them to return to their God-given position, and to empower them to fulfill the will of God for their lives.
