2. We are creating an ALTERNATIVE COMMUNITY -
which fosters a lifestyle guided by the teachings and
practices of Jesus Christ. Jesus said that the world would
know his disciples by the love they have for each other
(John 13:35). We are creating an environment that promotes
the love, acceptance and forgiveness embodied in the
Person of Jesus Christ for people of all ages.
3. We are a HEALING CENTER -
where our community purposefully seeks to create an
environment for healing of the whole person, using natural
and supernatural means to accomplish this (see Luke 4:16-21).
We take a holistic approach to healing including wellness,
prevention and curative elements. We expect people to have
ailments and times of brokenness that need loving care to
help heal.
4. We are a SCHOOL -
where people can become student-disciples who are taught
and equipped to live out the teachings and practices of Jesus
Christ (Ephesians. 4:11-14). We help each person discover their value and gifting as a particular member of the whole.
5. We are AMBASSADORS in God¹s PEACE CORPS.
We have been commissioned by Jesus Christ to take the
message of hope, love and healing to those who stand
outside of God¹s Kingdom (Luke 10:1 & 2 Corinthians 5:16-21). God¹s love fuels the natural and supernatural means we use to accomplish this purpose.
We are in association with the Association of
Vineyard Churches USA (AVC-USA) and with Vineyard
Ministries International (VMI) which together comprise over
1400 sister churches in various parts of the world.
