1 / Our four foundations
Four essential connections shape our ministry, discipleship pathway, and church culture.
The gospel is at the heart of every connection.
Explore salvation through JesusConnecting people to Jesus, to one another, to their purpose, and to His mission.
Helping people know and follow Jesus.
The Word of God is our authority for doctrine, governance, and daily living. Salvation is by grace through faith and offered freely to all.
Building real community and belonging.
We believe discipleship happens in the context of community. Small groups are central to helping people take their next step with Jesus and grow in maturity.
Equipping people to live out their God-given purpose.
Use your gifts to make a difference. We value people before projects, because relationships matter more than buildings or programs.
Mobilizing people to make a difference locally and globally.
We will build relationships, meet real needs, and share the hope of Jesus through authentic acts of care. We will support and send missionaries to the nations.
The good news of Jesus Christ
Our deepest need is more than a fresh start. We need forgiveness and new life. The gospel is the good news of what Jesus has done to bring us back to God.
God is holy and loving. He created us in His image to know Him, love Him, and live for His glory.
Genesis 1:27 · John 3:16
All of us have sinned—turning away from God in our thoughts, desires, words, and actions. Sin brings guilt, separation from God, and death. We cannot make ourselves right with Him through good works or religious activity.
Romans 3:23 · Romans 6:23 · Ephesians 2:8–9
Jesus Christ, fully God and fully man, lived without sin. He willingly died on the cross for our sins and rose bodily from the dead. Through Him, God offers forgiveness and eternal life.
Romans 5:8 · 1 Corinthians 15:3–4 · John 14:6
Repentance means turning from sin to God. Faith means relying on Jesus Christ alone—His death and resurrection—for salvation. You do not earn this gift; you receive it by God’s grace through faith in Jesus.
Mark 1:15 · Acts 20:21 · Romans 10:9–13
You can respond to Him today
You can speak honestly to God in prayer, confessing your sin and expressing your trust in Jesus. There are no special words that save you. Salvation rests on Christ and His finished work, received through genuine repentance and faith.
If you have trusted Christ, we would love to help you grow through Scripture, prayer, baptism, and life in a local church. Baptism is an act of obedience that follows faith; it does not earn salvation.
Romans 10:13 · Matthew 28:19–20 · Ephesians 2:8–10
Connect to People
Small by design, so people have room to be known.
Small groups will be the heart of community at Connect Church. We envision groups of 8–10 people, creating room for honest conversation, meaningful relationships, and genuine discipleship.
Groups may include men’s groups, couples’ groups, and other gatherings shaped around people’s needs. They will meet throughout the week, with locations and schedules varying by group.
Together, we will study Scripture, pray, welcome difficult questions, and encourage one another to follow Jesus. We want people to speak openly without feeling judged for where they are in their journey, while building relationships of trust, care, and loving accountability.
Our desire is for these relationships to extend beyond a meeting—sharing meals, walking through difficulties, celebrating milestones, and serving our neighbors together.

Connect to Purpose
An intentional, natural journey of discovery.
God has given you gifts, abilities, and experiences that can make a difference in the lives of others. At Connect Church, we want to walk alongside you as you discover your God-given passions for service.
That begins with relationships—getting to know your story, listening to what is on your heart, and exploring opportunities together. Through encouragement, practical experience, and guidance, we will help you develop your gifts and find meaningful ways to use them.
You don’t need to have your calling fully understood before taking a first step. There will be room to try, learn, and grow as God develops your abilities and opens new opportunities.

Connect to Mission
Rooted in our community.
Reaching the nations.
Our outreach will begin with local schools and extend into the surrounding community. We want to build relationships, listen to the needs of students, families, and educators, and explore practical ways to serve alongside them.
Our own backyard will be our starting point. As we grow, we will actively seek opportunities to reach beyond our borders, support and send missionaries, and take the love of Christ to the nations.
Through practical care and sharing the gospel, we want to help people encounter the hope of Jesus. Specific partnerships and opportunities will develop as we listen, build trust, and discern where God is leading.
