ABOUT US
ABOUT US
We want to see God move in our community
Towne Church is about Jesus Christ. We live for making the good news about him known to all people.
We strive to carry out the things he taught us, specifically the Great Commandment and the Great Commission. The Great Commandment, simply put, is that we should love God and love others. The Great Commission tells us to make disciples. These teachings are at the core of our purpose which is being disciples and making disciples. You can read more about our purpose, principles, and plan below.
WHO WE ARE
OUR PURPOSE
Our purpose is why we exists as a church and it is simply this:
BEING DISCIPLES • MAKING DISCIPLES
We believe Jesus has called us to be his disciples. That means we follow him and his example in all facets of our lives (John 8.31). Because of this, we are also called to make disciples (Matthew 28). We would love for you to join us in this purpose!
OUR PRINCIPLES
1. Jesus Christ is the center and focus of everything we do as a church.
2. The Bible is our ultimate guide for what we believe and how we live.
3. God loves everyone, and so should we.
4. The gospel never changes, but traditions and methods do.
5. Conversion to Christ is the work of the Holy Spirit.
6. Evangelism is not a program but a way of life—for all believers.
7. Spiritual growth is a lifelong pursuit that requires the help of God’s people.
8. Ministry is the responsibility of all God’s people.
9. No church is stronger than the families that worship there.
10. We should do everything in the church with excellence for God’s glory.
11. Leadership, godly character, and integrity are more important than anything else.
12. The church is not the building but God’s people who worship together and serve Christ in the community.
OUR PLAN
Our plan is the specific ways we will carry out our purpose in accordance with our principles. To do this, we encourage everyone who is part of Towne Church to be involved in the 3 S's:
Engage people in our SUNDAY CELEBRATION SERVICES through Christ-centered worship and relevant, biblical teaching.
Enlist people in SMALL GROUPS where they can experience fellowship, encouragement, and pastoral care.
Encourage people to find their place of SERVICE in the church and in the community.
