A Message From the Pastor:

     In 1 Chronicles, the Bible describes the tribe of Issachar, one of the tribes of Israel, as having a group of men who "had an understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do."  In other words, this group of men were responsible for strategically planning the Lord's path for Israel.  They were not to create strategy, but merely use the knowledge God had given them to implement God's design for His people.  Strategic planning may not sound very spiritual, yet it is the God given "How" to God's vision for His purpose.  Strategic planning is defined as the process of describing where we are as a church, discovering our opportunites for ministry and outreach and then developing a plan to become what we are supposed to be.  This planning happens as we consider the following:


    1) What Exactly is Our Mission? (Why are we here?)

    2) Where We Have Been? (For good or bad, how did we get here?)

    3) Who Are We? (An honest look at ourselves as we truly are.)

    4) How Are We Doing?

    5) Who's Out There We Need to Reach?

    6) What Are We Supposed to Be? (As a church)

    7) What Do We Do? (Then do it!) Actual Implementation


   We, as a church family, want to be all that God has called and created us to be here and now!


A true understanding of the needs we face both inside and outside the church.

A divine revelaton of the steps needed to accomplish God's ministries.

The faith and resources to step out and do His will.

Protection from the enemy.

Fruit for our labors in His fields.


Love you all in Christ,

Bro. Scott
