The purpose statement of our church is:
“In view of God’s mercy, we will offer the truth, hope, and love of Jesus to our community and to show the world that we are His disciples by our love for each other.”
This purpose statement is based on several Scriptures:
Romans 12:1 “...in view of God’s mercy...”
Matthew 22: 36-40 “'Love the LORD your God with all your heart...soul...and mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
Matthew 28:19-20 “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations...”
Ephesians 4:1-6 “...walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called...being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace...”
Ephesians 4:12-16 “...the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ... speaking the truth in love...”
With God's love, we will teach Christians how to live powerfully in the truth of Christ and offer non-Christians the hope of Jesus Christ.
We will design and support simple, specific ministries that address the fundamental needs unique to the urban area we call home so that we may evangelize Northern Virginia, for the glory of God and the expansion of His Kingdom!
