Our Vision

We believe God has called us to be an authentic church through worship, music, and Christian education for the community of faith. Our primary task is to provide opportunities for the community of Richmond to learn about God. We seek to serve the Lord with all of our mind, body and spirit.This vision for ministry will be actualized through:

• Understanding our unique identity and mission in the West End community;
• Focusing our ministry on the youth in our community, teaching them the Christian faith and training them in the vocation of Christian ministry through their personal lives and professional careers;
• Becoming a teaching church, where persons of all ages are equipped with Biblical and theological knowledge, Baptist heritage, and the resources and methods needed for living effectively as Christians in the world;
• Seeking spiritual renewal through liturgical-evangelical worship and small group prayer;
• Growing through intentional outreach;
• Enlarging and strengthening networks of fellowship and caregiving;
• Supplying the necessary leadership, facilities, and financial resources through greater stewardship.
