ABOUT US
Come visit us, experience the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ with us and have a coffee.
Our Core Values:
Community
The Trinity means that God himself is in community with Himself. More accurately, God is community: one God, three persons. We were created in His image and likeness (Genesis 1:26). Deep community is something we all desire, a deep sense of belonging. We are created for community. We are redeemed into community. We are transformed within community
Non judgmental
All are welcome, free in their appearance and challenged to grow progressively closer to God, impacting the world we live in.
Prayer
Prayer and fasting are so powerful when combined as they activate a chain reaction where we see God’s kingdom manifest on earth. When we come into agreement with God, we are aligned with God’s perfect will on earth, as it already is in heaven (Matthew 6:10).
Authenticity
What is the meaning of authenticity? The first thing that comes to mind is not to be fake, but the real deal. The major barrier with daily authenticity is living with masks. You might have been taught through religion that who you are and what you do is not enough, so you hide your true self behind a mask. You put on a Sunday smile and suffer through the religious service. This is a lie. We believe that this authentic life comes when we make a choice to choose love, unity and community over our fears, over our struggles and over our guarded life.
Creativity
God gave each of us creative minds. The first verse in the Bible says: “In the beginning God created the heavens and earth” (Genesis 1:1). God the Creator must be creative if He created everything, just look around you! His creation is beautiful and complex. He formed us in His image, so we are creative, too.
Service
The value of unselfish servanthood is a character of mature spirituality and leadership. Jesus said: “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45). Paul wrote: “:4 Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. :5 Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 2:4-5).
