STATEMENT OF FAITH
Mission Statement
“To meet the physical and spiritual needs of the homeless by providing
food, clothing, shelter and education to break the homeless cycle in the
name of Christ.”
Doctrinal Statement
A. We believe there is one God, eternal, existing as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
B. We believe the Bible to be God’s Word inspired by the Holy Spirit.
C. We believe that man was created in the image of God, holy and innocent, but in his fallen state is in need of salvation.
D. We believe that Jesus Christ is God, born of a virgin. He gave His life on the Cross where He, Who knew no sin, was made sin for us; He was buried and rose again from the dead and ascended into heaven and is coming again.
E. We believe that we are saved by grace through faith, apart from works, that the sinner who repents and personally accepts the finished work of Christ on the Cross becomes a child of God, is made a new creature, and is indwelt by the Holy Spirit.
