We are called to share God's love and power, to gather the unchurched, and to grow disciples who are passionate for God and His purposes, to provide teaching, fellowship, and training that will enable believers in the Central PA/NY Twin Tiers region to discover and develop their gifts and callings in order for them to fulfill their divine destinies in God.
The goal of every activity is:
(1) to provide the opportunity for each saint to be discipled, equipped and matured in his or her calling and relationship to the Lord, and
(2) to provide the opportunity for each saint to serve others, thus releasing his or her giftings and callings in order for each saint to fulfill their purpose ordained by God.
