Our Mission

Manifest Church exist to go seek out the lost and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to them. We exist to equip believers, so they can be mature in the faith and to prepare them for the work of ministry.

Our Core Values

We value Family

We believe that the first institution God has established is marriage which is between one man and one woman. From that relationship comes the family as we obey His command to be fruitful and multiple. We believe in building healthy families because healthy families create a healthy Church.

(Genesis 2:24; Genesis 1:28; Ephesians 5:22-33; 6:1-2)

We value Biblical Instruction

We are committed to the clear and accurate communication of God’s word in a way that comes with grace and truth. We believe that when we practice good exposition of God’s word, it will give God’s people a healthy theology which will lead them to have healthy practices. We believe that the word of God can answer the issues that plague people in our generation.

(2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Timothy 2:15)

We value Prayer

We believe in prayer because the Lord taught his disciples the importance of prayer. We believe that when we pray, we inquire of the Lord for his will to be done on earth through us as it is in heaven. We believe when we pray according to his will that he will do what we ask.

(Matthew 6:9-13; John 14:13-14; Mark 11:17)

We value Evangelism

We believe that the church is to actively be about preaching the gospel in the community that it serves. We believe that the mission of the church is known as “The Great Commission” given to us by our Lord Jesus Christ in Matthew 28:18-21; Mark 16:18. We want to actively look for ways that we can evangelize our community with the Good News of Jesus Christ.

We value Discipleship

We believe that part of the “Great Commission” is making disciples. We will make it our mission to help equip those who come to know our Lord for the works of ministry. We will help them grow by teaching them how to conduct themselves in the world and in the fellowship. We will be committed to teaching them everything the Lord has commanded us to observe in word and by our actions. (Matthew 28:18-21; 2 Timothy 3:16; Ephesians 4::11-16)

We value Fellowship

We believe that the church was establish by Jesus Christ for community. We believe God wants to put us together so that we can live life together. Fellowship was modeled for us by the earlier church and regardless of the time it is a vital part of the Christian life and it should not be neglected. (Acts 2:42-47; Hebrews 10:24-25; 1 John 1:3)

We value Mission 

We believe the local church is not only to minister to the community where it resides in but also to minister to rest of the world. We believe supporting ministries that will impact other nations with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and raise up within our mist those who will go to the nations. (Matthew 28:18-21; Mark 16:18; Acts 1:8)

Vision Statement

We see a multicultural church with passionate followers of Jesus Christ. We see a church where the Holy Spirit is poured out on our lives to be witnesses in our community and around the world. We see a church where grace is accepted and extended; where salvation is the norm and not the exception; where love for people springs forth from our love for God; where the joy of the Lord is experience; where believers keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace; where service is considered a privilege not a burden. We see a church where people can find real help; where marriages are valued and restored. We see a church where the hearts of the fathers are turned back to their children. We see a church were prayer is the undergirding and engulfing medium for all we do and for every initiative we take. We see a church that believes the word of God is the final authority for our lives and practice; where the preaching and teaching of God’s word is heard with anticipation; where the Word of God is studied with expectation and obeyed with passion; where we preach the Word of God in grace and truth. We see a church where destructive lifestyles, habits, addictions, and sexual immoral behaviors are abandoned, and new life begins. We see a church where the issues of our culture are seriously addressed from a biblical worldview which must be taken seriously; where God’s people take stands in the community that are courageous and compassionate.

Core Scripture

Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.  For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.

Matthew 18:18-20
