Our Mission
Keeping God as the center focus
Our mission is clear: to live a life as husband, wife, and family as God intends. Fully supporting each other, jointly raising our children, and keeping God as the center focus of our marriage and family, not letting small setbacks or people affect what God has deemed good and right.
By fostering healthy marriages and family dynamics, we can positively impact communities and society as a whole.

Our Beliefs
What we believe
- i.We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God (2 Peter 1:20-21).
- ii.We believe in one God who is infinite in power, holy in nature and purpose, omnipotent, and omnipresent (Psalm 62:11, Isaiah 6:3, and Psalm 139:7-10).
- iii.We believe that God was revealed to us as Father in creation, Son in redemption, and Holy Spirit in his comforting grace that never leaves those who trust in Him (1 Corinthians 8:6, Ephesians 4:6, 2 Corinthians 5:19, and Joel 2:28).
- iv.We believe that in Jesus Christ dwells all of the fullness of the Godhead (Colossians 1:19 and Colossians 2:9).
- v.We believe in the virgin birth and that Jesus was both human and divine as God manifested in the flesh (Matthew 1:23 and 1 Timothy 3:16).
- vi.We believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
- vii.We believe that Jesus ascended on high and sent the Holy Spirit which fills the hearts of those who diligently seek Him today (Acts 2:14).
Repentance
Repentance is the act of changing your heart and mind about the life you are currently living and seeking a better life by accepting Jesus Christ as your savior. Without repentance, the act of baptism is not effective. The heart must first be willing before the outward show of commitment is done. “Then Peter said unto them, ‘Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit’” (Acts 2:38).
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God and is a gift from God to help you during your Christian Walk. The infilling of the Holy Spirit is evidenced by speaking in tongues: “While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word…For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God” (Acts 10:44, 46). Speaking in tongues is a heavenly language that allows you to commune and converse with God freely.
