Our Mission and Vision
At FAC, our mission is driven by a singular, all-encompassing goal: to glorify God in every aspect of our lives. We believe that this mission is not only a calling but also a profound privilege, one that compels us to live out our faith in ways that reflect God’s grace and truth. Our community is a tapestry of individuals from diverse backgrounds and life experiences, yet we are unified by a shared faith in Christ. This unity is at the heart of our mission, guiding us to support one another, grow together, and serve our wider community with love and humility.
Central to our mission is the Great Commission, as articulated in Matthew 28:16-20. Jesus’ command to “make disciples of all nations” serves as our blueprint for action. This directive is not merely a historical mandate but a living, breathing mission that we actively pursue. By engaging in disciple-making, we participate in God’s chosen method for spreading the good news of salvation through Christ. Our vision extends beyond the confines of our local community, aiming to impact lives globally. We strive to be a beacon of hope, embodying the transformative power of the gospel in both word and deed.
Furthermore, our mission emphasizes the importance of building a supportive environment where believers can flourish. We aim to create spaces where individuals feel valued, encouraged, and equipped to grow in their faith. This involves fostering genuine relationships and providing opportunities for spiritual development, service, and worship. By doing so, we hope to cultivate a community that not only supports its members but also reaches out to those in need, demonstrating the love of Christ in tangible ways.
In essence, our mission and vision are deeply intertwined, each reinforcing the other. As we seek to glorify God and fulfill the Great Commission, we are committed to building a community that reflects the inclusive, redemptive love of Christ. Through our collective efforts, we aspire to make a lasting impact, both within our community and beyond, for the glory of God and the advancement of His kingdom.
Our Core Values
At FAC, our core values are the foundational principles that shape our community and guide us in our mission to follow Christ and make disciples. These values are more than mere statements; they are the essence of our collective identity and purpose, intricately woven into our daily lives and interactions.
One of our primary values is unity in diversity. We believe that our community’s strength lies in the rich tapestry of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives each member brings. This unity fosters an environment where every individual feels valued and accepted, creating a space where love and respect transcend differences. By embracing diversity, we reflect the inclusive nature of Christ’s love, promoting harmony and mutual understanding.
Another pivotal value is our commitment to spiritual growth. At FAC, we encourage every believer to deepen their faith and knowledge of God. Through regular worship services, Bible studies, and prayer meetings, we provide opportunities for spiritual nourishment and development. This commitment ensures that our community members are continually growing in their relationship with Christ, equipping them to face life’s challenges with a steadfast faith.
Our dedication to service is also a cornerstone of our values. We believe that serving others is a tangible expression of our faith. Whether through local outreach programs, volunteer opportunities, or global missions, we strive to make a positive impact in the lives of those around us. By serving with humility and compassion, we embody Christ’s teachings and demonstrate God’s love in action.
Lastly, we are driven by a passion for evangelism. Sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ is at the heart of our mission. We are committed to spreading the message of hope and salvation to those who have not yet encountered it. Through personal testimonies, community events, and other evangelistic efforts, we seek to reach out and invite others into a transformative relationship with Christ.
These core values not only guide our actions but also create a supportive and nurturing environment where every member can thrive. By living out these values authentically and collectively, we foster a community that encourages spiritual growth, service, and evangelism, ultimately fulfilling our mission to follow Christ and make disciples.
