  • PASSIONATE WORSHIP
    We love to express ourselves in worship to God. He deserves the highest praise!

  • PRACTICAL TEACHING
    We believe that teaching without application is meaningless. Pastor Jack teaches and preaches in a way that is genuine, practical, and helpful for daily living.

  • PERSONAL GROWTH
    Discipleship is a cornerstone of the Christian life. We offer regular classes to help boost your walk with God, while offering a unique and meaningful way to fellowship with one another.

  • SERVING TOGETHER
    This is why Jesus came, and this is our model, to serve one another in unity. A simple online video gateway course is available at any time for those interested in joining one of our many Serve Teams.

  • EXCELLENCE IN EVERYTHING
    From the tidiness of the foyer to the content of individual classes, we believe in doing all things as unto the Lord Himself, so we do our very best to offer excellence in all that we do!
