Most fundamentally, we are a believing community. We are united by our common faith. Anyone and everyone is welcome to attend our public services, but every active and serving member has professed their faith through baptism and has affirmed our statement of faith and church covenant.
Church is not just an event you attend. It is a people you join. We are a family of people who have committed our lives to the Lord Jesus and to one another. For believers interested in joining, our membership process follows three steps: a class with one of our members, a conversation with one of our pastors, and a covenant with our church.
The New Testament church devoted themselves to the apostle's teaching, the fellowship, the breaking of bread, and the prayers (Acts 2:42). We practically devote ourselves to the word, worship, and fellowship through several avenues of weekly programming.
The mission of God is primarily done through church members who speak the truth of Jesus where they live, work, and play. Every disciple is a disciple-maker. Beyond this every day minsitry of every member, our church makes a concerted effort to the ends of the earth. We are actively involved in disciple-making and church planting efforts in Southeast Louisiana, Southeast Asia, and South America.
