Core Values

Christ-Centered

  • Our thoughts, words and deeds should always be directed to bringing glory to Jesus Christ.  We commit that all our partnerships will be with those who profess and claim Christ as their Savior and are equally committed to the goal of sharing the gospel and transforming lives.

  • “If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.” 1 Peter 4:11(NIV) 

Prayer-Based

  • Prayer is the foundation of our decision making.  We will seek God’s direction, blessings and convictions through corporate and individual prayer. 

  • “Whether you turn to the right or the left your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying “this is the way, walk in it”  Isaiah 30:21(NIV)

Discipleship Driven

  • The sole purpose of all that we do is to make disciples for Jesus Christ.  We commit to walk alongside new believers and mature Christians alike so that their lives will bring glory to God and fulfill His purpose.

  •  “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” Matthew 28:19 (NIV)

Humility in Service

  • We approach everything we do knowing that we can do nothing apart from Christ.  We will strive to understand and respect cultural differences and will listen more than we speak.  We will keep the image of Jesus washing the disciples’ feet top of mind as we interact with others.

  •  “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves” Philippians 2:3 (NIV)

Collaborative Relationships

  • We believe in the value of working with others to achieve together what may not be possible alone.  We aspire to bring a collaborative spirit in all that we do, learning from the insights and experiences of others and sharing openly what others may be able to learn from us.

  • “For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function”. Romans 12:4 (NIV)


Good Stewardship

  • All we are given truly belongs to God and we are committed to steward our resources in a manner worthy of our calling. We promise full transparency to donors and commitment to our 100% pledge that every dollar donated to a program reaches our children.

  •  “Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required, and from him to whom they entrusted much, they will demand more.”  Luke 12:48b (ESV)
