APC’s vision for ministry is encapsulated in our mission statement based on Romans 12:2: “Transforming Lives through the Good News of Jesus Christ.”
We seek to live as transformed people devoted to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We define the Gospel message as the good news that Jesus has died for our sins and was raised from the dead so that through his resurrection and gift of the Holy Spirit we can live transformed lives filled with love for God and service to his creation.
Our vision for ministry is to be living witnesses to the Gospel of Jesus Christ through worship, communion, fellowship, study, prayer, service and mission.
How we live out this vision:
By celebrating the presence and grace of God in worship: Our weekly worship services connect us to God and to each other through meaningful preaching, celebration of the sacraments, beautiful music, and Christian fellowship. Our music program provides opportunities for worship participation for all ages.
By growing in wisdom and knowledge of God through prayer and study: We gain knowledge and insight through Bible studies and small groups. We encourage children and youth to be active participants in the life of the church. We join in prayer to connect with God.
By spreading the great joy of Jesus’s to our neighbors and serving the community: We connect to others in our community through our various mission projects and care for those experiencing hardship.
