Mission
We are a regional church seeking to glorify God by raising up mature disciples of Christ to be dynamic witnesses for Him in Cobourg, Northumberland County and around the world.
VISION
We envision a vibrant church where believers are equipped to serve and are sent out to be dynamic witnesses in the communities they live in resulting in new church plants throughout Northumberland County.
The Bible: We commit to uphold the Word of God as the ultimate authority in all matters of faith and practice. (2 Tim. 3:16-17; Col. 3:16; Acts 2:42; 2 Tim. 4:3)
Worship: As God reveals Himself to us we respond in worship by glorifying Him in all areas of our lives; through corporate worship gatherings, ministry, work, relationships, etc. (Rom. 12:1, Jhn. 4:21-24)
Prayer: We accept the Lord’s invitation to pray boldly in all circumstances and as we depend on Him in every aspect of ministry and life. (Heb. 4:16; Acts 2:42; Eph. 6:18-20; 1 Tim 2:1-4; Jude 20)
Equipping: The church is responsible for equipping its members to stand firm in the world we live in and to do the good works God has prepared for us to do. We train for lifelong service with Christ and His church as we identify, develop and use our spiritual gifts. (Col. 1:28; Eph 4:11-16; 2 Tim 3:16-17; Eph 2:10)
Concern for the Lost: We show unbelievers both near and far that they matter to God and to us through acts of mercy, outreach, evangelism and missions. (Acts 1:8; 1 Tim. 2:3-4; Col 4:5-6; Matt 28:19-20; Luk. 10:35-37, Jas. 1:27; Rom. 10:17)
Concern for the Church Body: We value every member of the body of Christ and work to see that they are connected and cared for. We also commit to protect the body of Christ from dangers both within and outside the church. (1 Cor. 12:4-20; 1 Peter 3:8; Matt 18:15-20; Acts 20:29-30; Col 2:8; Tit. 1:10-11)
The Next Generation: We believe that building into the next generation (children, youth and young adults) is vital to the future of the church. (Ps. 71:18; 2 Tim. 2:2; Prov. 22:6; Dt. 6:7)
Embrace Change: We promote a culture where it is encouraged to try new things in order to better reach people with the unchanging truths of the gospel. (1 Cor. 9:19-23)
