Corporate Dreaming

Acts 2:17 (NKJV): ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, that I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your young men shall see visions, your old men shall dream dreams.

Our Shared Dream

We see the church as a place where we encounter God, where His presence is always experienced, and the power of the Holy Spirit is evidenced in signs and wonders. Our members are loving people, with hearts full of gratitude and appreciation for God and His people. We are excited about what God is doing, and are expectant that He will continually pour out His Spirit upon us and use us for His glory.
