SEEK the lost
We seek the lost because Christ first sought us. Just as the Good Shepherd left the ninety-nine to find the one who had wandered, we believe the Church is called to go into the world, not waiting for the lost to find their way to us, but pursuing them with the same love, compassion, and grace that Christ has shown us. We were once the lost, the broken, and the wandering, yet Christ came seeking us, calling us out of darkness and into His marvelous light. Now, as His body, we carry on His mission, meeting people where they are, walking alongside them, and inviting them into a life of reconciliation with God and fellowship with His people. We do not seek the lost simply to fill a building, but to build people into the image of Christ. For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost. (Luke 19:10)
Teach the found
To be found by Christ is the beginning of a lifelong journey of being transformed into His likeness, learning to love as He loved, serve as He served, and give our lives as He gave His for us. We believe this transformation is not accomplished through knowledge alone, but through a life of obedience and surrender to the Holy Spirit, who leads, teaches, and shapes us through the life and fellowship of Christ’s Church. Together, we grow as one body, encouraging, correcting, strengthening, and bearing one another’s burdens as we learn what it means to truly live as disciples of Jesus. We do not teach merely to fill minds with knowledge, but to shape lives into the image of Christ, so that His life becomes visible through ours. “Be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us.” (Ephesians 5:1–2)
send the disciples
Just as the Father sent Christ into the world, Christ now sends us, empowered by the Holy Spirit, to continue His work of reconciliation and redemption. We believe discipleship is not complete until we become disciples who make disciples, giving our lives so that others may come to know the Father through Jesus Christ. We are sent into our homes, workplaces, communities, and nations, not to conform to the world, but to reveal the life of Christ within it. We go not as individuals pursuing our own missions, but as one body, united in faith, love, and purpose, carrying the Kingdom of God wherever we are sent. We seek the lost, teach the found, and send the disciples so that all may know Christ and become part of His Church. As Jesus commanded, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.” (Matthew 28:19–20)
