Vision Statement "I have a passion and a vision for calling believers
to faith as the center of life. I want the church to open its doors
to welcome in the world with the hospitality of Jesus and to go out
into the world with the healing presence of Christ." "Hospitality is at the heart of the Gospel. It is Jesus going to prepare a place for us and coming back to take us home. It is Jesus inviting fishermen and tax collectors to follow, Jesus seeking and saving the lost. The gospel is the hospitality of the feast of the bridegroom where everyone is invited and the water is turned into wine. It is the father rushing down the street to welcome home his lost son and then throwing a feast for the whole town to celebrate. The Gospel is "God welcomes us home!" "I seek to serve a congregation that wants to be partners in developing a vision of hospitality to the world and care for each other. When we hear the gospel and know that through Jesus, God has welcomed us home as the children of God, our response is to celebrate and live joyfully in God's household. The Christian life is welcoming others home too. That welcome includes sharing the good news of their place at the table and making sure that they have a table at which to eat in this age.
