Our mission is to be transformed and to transform our local and global community into a more just, inclusive, and supportive place. We seek to achieve this through word, worship, and service; building interfaith partnerships; and advocating for policies, systems, and environmental changes that help people to live healthy and whole lives.
Based in Capitol Heights, Maryland, we strive to promote faithful serve and witness through positive outreach and programs which will excite and encourage all persons to assume a conscious role to build in the community of Christ. Our core values are Love, Respect, Worship, Discipleship, and Community. We hope to see you soon!
