We believe that the coming of our dear Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is soon. However, as Scripture asserts, the Gospel must first be preached throughout all the world. As we mature in our journey of love and faith in Christ toward the ultimate goal of salvation and success in all areas of life; we know the sincere demonstration of Jesus' kindness and grace in the way we live our lives is the truest testimony of God's grace that can be offered.

​

We believe that it is Jesus Christ himself who graciously allows us to submit ourselves in humility to Him in true servant-leadership and genuine expression of love to all, thereby drawing all true worshipers to Himself in the expansion of His magnificent Kingdom.
