FCC’s mission is simple

We help people find their way back to God by connecting, growing and serving.

This mission is based on 2 Corinthians 5:18-20.

2 Corinthians 5:18-20 (The Message)

18 All this comes from the God who settled the relationship between us and him, and then called us to settle our relationships with each other. 19 God put the world square with himself through the Messiah, giving the world a fresh start by offering forgiveness of sins. God has given us the task of telling everyone what he is doing. 20 We’re Christ’s representatives. God uses us to persuade men and women to drop their differences and enter into God’s work of making things right between them. We’re speaking for Christ himself now: Become friends with God; he’s already a friend with you.

Our Mission Expanded

Led by the Holy Spirit, we . . .

Connect with God, one another and the world, through Jesus Christ.

Grow as we surrender to Christ and embrace His teaching.

Are humbled by Christ’s love and example to Serve.

Commitment to Lifestyle

There are ten statements that guide our lifestyle as a Church.

1. We will search for the activity of God and pursue it. The bottom line to every question will be, “Is this God’s desire?”

2. Reaching lost people is God’s main desire. Therefore, everything will be organized with that central purpose.

3. We will undergird everything with prayer and intend to walk by faith and not by sight.

4. All matters will be measured against the Scriptures. Biblical doctrine is not negotiable; methods will be constantly evaluated.  We will submit ourselves to constant adjustment that allows for growth. We cannot get overly comfortable.

5. We see the church as a hospital for sinners; therefore, an attitude and atmosphere of grace will abound.

6. Challenges will be dealt with, not ignored. Criticism, murmuring and slander will not be allowed to disrupt the fellowship of the Lord’s Church.

7. We seek to serve diligently, efficiently and effectively.

8. We are an elder-guided, staff-driven church. Pastors and staff will be allowed to initiate and lead with trust, support and prayers of the church.

9. Our church family seeks to strengthen the individual family.

10. We will plan for and work to nurture life through deep Christian relationships. We seek to help each Christian discover their gifts, passion and ministry.
