Scriptural Foundation >>

Acts 2:42-47 ⁴²They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. ⁴³Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. ⁴⁴All the believers were together and had everything in common. ⁴⁵Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. ⁴⁶Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, ⁴⁷praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

Mission Statement >>

We believe that Faith Christian Community Church has been empowered by God to:

· Fellowship with people and meet their needs

· Assimilate “THE CALLED” into ministry

· Invite the lost to know JESUS

· Teach the Word of God and Pray

· Honor and Love God through a lifestyle of worship

Vision Statement >>

To accomplish our mission, we will develop “Christ Centered” ministries that change lives through outreach, discipleship, worship, fellowship and prayer.

What We Believe and Who We Are>> The best way to understand Faith Christian Community Church is too look through our theology, and our collective conscience on social issues. There are 2 primary elements of our church. Our theology is captured in 16 Articles of Faith, which describe how we understand Scripture.

... in one God, the creator of all things, who reveals Himself as Father, Son and Spirit.
... in Jesus Christ, who is fully God and fully man at the same time, and who became like us to bring about our salvation.
... in the Holy Spirit, who is active in the world, bringing us to salvation.
... that the Bible is the Word of God, giving us all we need to know about how to be saved
... that we are all sinners by both nature and act and need God's forgiveness and cleansing
... that Jesus Christ died on the cross and that, by trusting in His death, we can be restored to a right relation to God.
... that God enables us to turn to Him from sin, but that He does not force us to do so.
... that each person must repent, turn away from their sins, and trust Christ to accept them.
... that when we turn from sin and trust in Christ, the old record of sin is wiped clean, and we are born anew, thus becoming part of the family of God.
... that after being born anew, we need the fullness of God's Spirit in our hearts. When we make a complete commitment to God, He cleanses our Spirit, fills us with His Perfect Love, and gives us the power to live victoriously.
... that the church is that community which confesses Jesus Christ as Lord and which serves as His body in the present generation.
... in baptism. We strongly urge Christians to be baptized as believers.
... in the Lord's Supper.
... that God does heal. We pray for healing. We also believe that God can work through medical science.
... that Jesus Christ is coming again.
... that everyone will face the judgement of God with its rewards and punishments

Our collective conscience on social issues informs our teaching around the local church and also guides us in Christian living outside the church. Our positions include favoring marriage over divorce while at the same time fully receiving those who have suffered divorce, opposing abortion for convenience, viewing homosexual behavior as one of many forms of sexual impurity that God offers to transform us from, and opposing alcohol use, tobacco use and gambling. These positions are not enforced legalistically, but members agree to embrace them as our collective conscience and to ensure that at least inside the church community our teaching and practice be consistent with them.
