Making disciples of Jesus Christ is the highest
calling, the greatest privilege, and the most important task of the
church. Therefore, we seek to glorify God by being a growing family of
disciples which lovingly seeks to bring others to faith in Christ, and
nurtures and equips them for His ministry in the church and in the
world.
1.) To proclaim the Word of God through Biblical preaching and
teaching, group Bible study, and Christian education for all ages.
2.) To provide times of worship for prayer, praise, renewal and
commitment.
3.) To evangelize the expanding community of Fairfield, surrounding
towns, and the family and friendship contacts of its members; by
verbal witness of the Gospel and visible love in the Spirit.
4.) To encourage each member to care for all people with the love of
Christ, especially the family of believers. The love of God at work
in our church through the lives of members in all that we do, will
draw others as a moth to a flame and thereby fill God’s house for His
glory.
5.) To assist those whom we know are suffering spiritually,
emotionally and/or economically; both locally and throughout the
world.
6.) To welcome newcomers with warmth and hospitality, and to involve
them further in the life of the church.
7.) To have an every-member ministry, whereby each person of the
congregation has identified and uses their spiritual gift(s) in
ministry for Jesus Christ.
8.) To provide fellowship opportunities to enhance the unity and
sense of community within the congregation, and provide meaningful
social involvement for all ages.
9.) To utilize to full potential the resources and property God has
entrusted to us.
