Who are we?

our VISION
We are a GOSPEL CENTERED, TRANSFORMATIONALLY FOCUSED, MULTI-ETHNIC/MULTI-GENERATIONAL
MOVEMENT OF GOD.

OUR MISSION
The mission of First Christian Church is to first and foremost make disciples! Jesus gave us those marching orders before ascending into heaven in Matthew 28. There Jesus said, "Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the date.
In addition , we want to impact our community for Christ. Not only did Jesus preach and teach wherever he went, he also brought healing and hope. We don't want to simply talk about the Kingdom of God, but we want to usher it in.
