Ward Church desires to love our neighbors, near and far, by being intentional in what we say and do. Review our mission statement and the values that guide our church every day!
Mission
Leading generations to live and love like Jesus.
Values
Thoughtful Theology
We love God with our minds, as well as our hearts.
We welcome tough questions and avoid simplistic answers. We seek to understand and apply the scriptures to all areas of life (2 Timothy 3:16).
Audacious Generosity
We share time, talent, and treasure for the glory of God and the good of neighbor.
We live with open hands, realizing that everything belongs to God. We excel in the grace of giving (2 Corinthians 8:7).
Healthy Families
We support the family as God’s primary plan for nurturing and discipleship.
The family was created by God to be a reflection of His character and the vehicle of His grace (Ephesians 3:14-15). We invest in marriages, parents, grandparents, kids, and students. We minister to those who know the pain of a broken family. We are family to each other.
Global Reach
We share God’s heart for all nations, including the nations in our own neighborhoods.
The work of justice and mercy starts here at home, but extends near and far. We desire to be people through whom God will bless all nations (Genesis 12:1-2).
Extra-Mile Hospitality
We welcome everyone as an honored guest.
Taking our role as hosts seriously, we go the extra mile to let our guests know that they are not just welcome, but wanted (Romans 15:7). This hospitality is not just for first-time visitors on Sunday morning, but permeates all relationships and extends beyond our walls.
Essentials of our Faith
We are affiliated with the EPC, a global movement of Evangelical Presbyterian Churches. You can read about the essentials of our faith on their website.
