Our Mission           Our primary mission is to give away freely that which God has freely given us, to love the people of Berea and the world into a personal relationship with God. Then, to teach them who they are in Christ and how to live a victorious life in their covenant rights and privileges. Finally, to bring them to a place where they are rooted and grounded in God's Word to reach out and teach others these same principles. So that as many as possible may come to know salvation and the fullness of the spiritual heritage in Christ. Our Vision           Our vision is to win the lost. We are not out to recruit members from other churches. We believe their are plenty of lost souls to fill any size church. It is our hope to win lost souls who have never attended any church regularly and those who have have for whatever reason fallen a way for a church.           Imagine a bunch of Jesus People. Traditional Christian, evangelicals and charismatics, people from every background and walk of life who love God and others. We are awe struck by the vastness of God's love for all people. We come together to share God's love with others in practical ways. That is who we are and our prayer is that of Saint Francis, which follows:                     Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace.                     Where there is hatred, let me sow love;                     where there is injury, pardon;                     where there is doubt, faith;                     where is despair, hope;                     where there is darkness, light;                     where there is sadness, joy.                     Oh, Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek                     to be consoled as to console;                     to be understood as to understand;                     to be loved as to love;                     For it is in giving that we receive;                     it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;                     it is in dying that we are born again to eternal life.

We know that it is not about us, it's about His love. Our vision will be accomplished on a worldwide scale first to Berea then the world through the use of television , campaigns, conventions, books, tapes, recordings and personal correspondence. We believe the world will be won by the love of God and only the love of God can truly change people and the world. A Local Church           Our vision includes establishing a church here in Berea. However, it will not be a church in the conventional sense. We are looking for a building we can use every day not just a couple of days a week. A storefront for example would work out well because we could use it for services a couple of days a week and a coffee house for fellowship the other days. It could also be used for classes and other purposes during the week. Even thought our vision includes a church our main goal is to build up the body of Christ the local church is just a byproduct of building up the church.
