We are committed to reaching non-believers and leading them toward salvation through faith in Him. This is central to our evangelistic efforts.<br><br><\/p>\n<h6>Equip Unified Believers Toward Maturity<\/h6>\n<p>We believe that spiritual growth is a continuous journey. We are committed to equipping believers with the tools they need to deepen their understanding of God\u2019s Word, strengthen their relationship with Him, and serve others. This growth happens within a unified community where believers support one another in their walk of faith, helping each other mature spiritually and live out the gospel.<br><\/p>\n\n\n<h6>Establish New Believers in the Church<\/h6>\n<p>We believe in the ministry of the local church as God\u2019s ordained context for believers to grow and thrive in their faith. New believers need the guidance, community, and support that only the church can provide. We are committed to helping them become rooted in Scripture and integrated into the life and mission of the church, which is the foundation God has established for their growth.<br><\/p>\n<h6>Entrust Faithful Believers to Multiply<\/h6>\n<p>We believe that every disciple is called to make disciples. As the church, we are commissioned by God to carry the gospel locally and globally. We are committed to raising up leaders and multiplying churches by investing in the development of future leaders and supporting church plants. Through discipleship and leadership training, we equip faithful believers to extend God\u2019s kingdom and multiply the work of the church, reaching new communities with the gospel.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Pastor Luis, along with his wife, Liala, and their three children\u2014Lily, Emma, and Evan\u2014are passionate about serving God and advancing His Kingdom.
