Our Vision
At Altar Church, our vision is driven by three core values that shape our purpose and guide our journey:
LOVE
We advance His kingdom by loving all people as Jesus did.
Our commitment to love is the cornerstone of our mission. We strive to embody Christ's unconditional love in all that we do by reaching out to the hurting, the marginalized, and the lost with compassion and empathy. We believe that through love, we can transform lives and bring hope, healing, and salvation to our community and beyond.
BUILD
We build relationships with Christ, our families, each other, and our community.
Our focus on building is founded on the belief that strong, nurturing relationships are the bedrock of a thriving and harmonious community. We are dedicated to strengthening our connection with Christ, nurturing our families, fostering unity among our members, and extending our hands to build bridges within our broader community. We believe that in building these relationships, we create a support network that empowers individuals and transforms communities.
GROW
We continuously grow and develop in Christ, both individually and corporately.
We recognize that growth is essential for personal and collective transformation. We are committed to nurturing spiritual and personal development, encouraging lifelong learning, and fostering a culture of excellence. As we grow individually and corporately, we become better equipped to fulfill our mission and positively impact the world.
Our vision is to be a dynamic, Christ-centered organization that embraces and lives out these core values. Through our commitment to loving, building, and growing, we aim to inspire, transform, and leave a lasting impact on the lives we touch and the world we serve.
Our Mission
Our mission is to be a vessel for God in reaching the unreached and to empower generations to live a life that is fully devoted to Christ, by guarding the precious truth entrusted to us, with the help of the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
