Ministry Doctrinal Statement
I believe in utilizing the five-fold ministry in the church. Providing a place of freedom for people to flow in the Gifts of the Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues, the manifestation of miracles, and spending time in the presence of God during worship. I believe that a church is a place of caring for each other, reaching out to the lost, family fellowship, allowing and promoting growth in every person, raising up ministers, and providing counseling to help all reach a healthy place in God
