Our Mission

 “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” – Matthew 28:19

Our Vision

  Greenwood is a place to love and grow with God; a place to love, connect with and serve our brothers and sisters.  

Here's a thought:

Each time you face a choice today, pause for a few seconds to consider how your decision can serve God's purposes.

As the people of God, we are called to develop our faith through the understanding of God’s love and to be a church dedicated to prayer.  

We believe that Christ is calling us to serve by being present and welcoming to all, regardless of ethnic, cultural or economic background.

God calls us to give our time, talent and monetary resources to effectively proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
