Mission Statement
We have a dream:
It is a dream of a place where the hurting, the depressed,the frustrated, and the confused can find love, acceptance, help, hope, forgiveness,guidance, and encouragement.
It is a dream of sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with hundreds of thousands of residents in the Greater Minerva Area.
It is a dream of welcoming 1,500 members into the fellowship of our church family loving,learning, laughing, and living in harmony together.
It is a dream of developing people to spiritual maturity through Bible studies, small groups, seminars, retreats, and Bible school for our members.
It is the dream of equipping every believer for a significant ministry by helping them to discover the gifts and talents God gave them.
It is the dream of sending out many career missionaries and church workers all around the world, and empowering every member for a personal life mission in the world. It is the dream of sending our members on the short-term mission projects to those areas targeted by GBIM. It is the dream of starting new churches in Ohio with the cooperation of Vision Ohio.
It is the dream of at least 20 acres of land on which will be built a regional church for reaching the eastern end of Ohio with beautiful, open, bright, modern, yet simple facilities including a worship center seating almost a thousand, a counseling and prayer center, classrooms for Bible Studies and training lay ministers, a resource room filled with resources to reach a sight and sound generation, a media room, a children's wing and nursery that is creative, spacious and able to meet the needs of a first-class childrens ministry and a recreation area which includes a gymnasium, a coffee bar, and bookstore. All of this will be designed to minister to the total person spiritually,emotionally, physically, and socially and set in a peaceful, inspiring landscape.
We believe these dreams can be reality because our God is the God of the impossible!
