Core Values

Values central to the life, mission and vision of Centro de Vida y Esperanza

The Word of God

We believe that the Bible is our roadmap to life.  All that we will be founded and led from the Word of God. 2 Timithy 3:15.  

How will we do this?  - Teaching from the Bible will be a part of every ministry as well as encouraging each member to have an active devotional life.

 
Worship

We believe in inspirational praise and worship that is both pleasing to God and relevant to the culture.  2 Chronicles 5:11-14

How will we do this? - Praise and worship will be incorporated into the main services as well as the Childrens Ministry.  


Each other

We believe in building healthy relationships, honoring and loving one another and being quick to forgive.  Gal. 3:13 and 6:10

How will we do this?  We will do this through LIFE group interaction, serving one another, Biblical Teaching and holding each other accountable to these principles in a loving and caring way.


Community evangelism

We believe in reaching out to all people groups with the Good News of Jesus Christ.  Mark 16:15

How will we do this?  We will make evangilism a top priority through intentional community outreach, neighborhood and coworker interaction and all opportunities God presents to us each day.


Mentoring

We believe in the importance of one on one and small group relationships (LIFE groups) sharing how Jesus has helped each of us face and overcome day to day challenges.  Matt.  28:16-20

How will we do this?  In established LIFE groups that support spiritual, emotional, practical, and spiritual needs both in the church and in the community.

prioritize planting and growing local churches as in Acts 9:31 and Ephesians 3:14-19, that believers may be grown, nurtured and equipped for ministry.

 

Spiritual Growth

We believe in presenting every opportunity to grow in Christ through corporATate worship, Biblical teaching, descipleship training and in LIFE (living in fellowship everyday) groups.  Our relationship with Jesus is the most important aspect of our life.  2 Tim 2:15

How will we do this?  LIFE Groups, corporate sessions, specialized training, and one on one mentoring.


Leadership Development

We believe that pastors and teachers prepare God's people for works of ministry.  We will be intentional in our raising up of leaders who will duplicate themselves in the lives of others and who will in turn, do the same  Eph. 4:11-13

How will we do this?  Provide ongoing leadership training that focuses on developing skills needed to lead others.


Spiritually Healthy Families

We believe that spiritually healthy families are the essential ingredient in restoring Godly morals to this country.  It's by being together in the Word, attending church regularly, and living together in harmony that our families can demonstrate the value of a Christ centered family.  Psalms 128:3-4

How will we do this?  Provide a pathway for Biblical Pastoral Care, marriage seminars, workshops that focus on how to build healthy families.

 

Children/Youth/Young Adults

We believe in reaching kids at the earliest age with the message of Jesus, providing appropriate Christian education, and teaching them how to share Jesus with others.  Love them, one by one!  Isaiah 58:12

How will we do this?  Make children our priority!  They will be nurtured and taught how much Jesus loves them and encouraged to reach their fullest potential in life through intentional Biblical teaching.  We will provide a safe and fun learning environment.


Basic Life Networks

We believe in helping people connect with communities and organizations that will provide assistance for food, shelter, clothing, and education.  We will respond to critical social issues such as teaching ESL classes and job training.  

How will we do this?  We will establish a pathway to teach English/Spanish, employment workshops, and other resource networking.


Excellence in all that we do for Jesus

We believe and are commited to giving Jesus our best efforts.  We do our best and watch God do the rest!

How will we do this?  Through creative teamwork and always seeking to improve on what talents God has already given us.
