Mission Statement
The Mission of the people of God called Original Free Will Baptists is to glorify God. Therefore, we strive to know Christ, build His Church and make Him known to all people as we continue to seek His will. We believe this mission can be fulfilled through . . .
WORSHIPPING -- "...Worship the Father in spirit and truth..."--John 4:23-- We commit ourselves to glorifying God by Worship, which is the adoration of God. Worship is duly required of all His children through praise, prayer, the reading and preaching of His Word, and should inspire witness leading to discipleship. Every Christian may worship God privately; however, this should never replace the corporate worship of the church.
GROWING -- "But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ ..."--2 Peter 3:18--We commit ourselves to glorifying God by moving toward maturity through learning, fellowshipping, and doing the work of ministry.
CARING -- "As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith."--Galatians 6:10-- We commit ourselves to glorifying God by making Christ known to the world, by caring for those of the flock of God, and by demonstrating the love of God to all peoples.
SHARING -- "...Freely ye have received, freely give."--Matthew 10:8b-- We commit ourselves to glorifying God by sharing what we know, what we have, and what we are, with all peoples.
EQUIPPING -- "For the equipping (perfecting) of the saints for the work of ministry..."--Ephesians 4:12a-- We commit ourselves to glorifying God by equipping all believers for the work of ministry. The Church, through its leadership, is to see to it that the people of God are educated, guided, and cared for that they might become spiritually mature as they do the work of ministry.
