We are a church of
worshiping God
Worshiping God is the top priority in our daily lives, because that is our sole calling.
seeking God's truth
His Word is our ultimate authority and our life-guidance as well.
prayer
Persistent prayer and faithful intercession do not only help us experience God's gracious promises vividly but also let us inspired by the Holy Spirit continuously, hence we can witness His hand is always being upon us.
unity
Since Jesus Christ himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility (Eph. 2:14). So the mark of His body is to remain unity, in terms of pursuing racial harmony and keeping variety.
evangelism
The Great commission bestowed by Jesus Christ as His disciples to reach out non-churched people, sharing His gospel with those who are in need.
focusing on family
Families are instituted by God. By establishing healthy families we can eventually develop healthy churches and communities.
deliverance and healing
Jesus stresses His mission on earth, that is, "The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor ( Luke 4:18-19)." As His disciples, in the name of Jesus we are pleased to set those who are suffering free by God's healing power.
discipleship
In Mathew 28:19, Jesus urges "go and make disciples of all nations." Accordingly it is a must for us to nurture, equip, and empower more and more disciples who will be able to serve God and serve people.
giving
Tithe and offering are ways of confessing that God is our original provider, that we are His faithful stewards, and that we are willing to take care of those people in need with His Love.
