10. Jesus said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners." (Mark 2:17) He also said, " For the Son of Man came to seek and save what was lost." (Luke 19:10) We believe our church should look outward to the lost and their needs before it looks inward to the needs of unchurched people.
As members of this church, while recognizing the need to develop as disciples of Christ, we are here to reach a lost world. (Matt. 28:19-20) We are here to put their needs ahead of ours. We know our mission is to the lost. We are a church where non-Christians and those who may be different from us are welcomed, served and loved. We hope and pray that by modeling Christ, we can lead them to a point where they become members of Christ's family.
