Our Purpose and Mission

Our congregation’s purpose is to be the most inspiring and uplifting Christian church in Rapid City. We do this by following Jesus Christ and living out the mission God has called us to.

We believe that mission is to:

  1. Be a church that senses God’s presence. Every time we meet, we ask for God’s Spirit to be present so we may experience Him to the fullest.
  2. Be a church of prayer. Prayer changes things. That is why we pray at our church and believe in the power of prayer. Our prayer chain receives requests weekly that we pray for.
  3. Be a church that reaches into our community. We have an outreach in our community. This is usually done through a local organization that we can come alongside with. Some that we help with are the Christian radio stations, Cornerstone Rescue Mission, Black Hills Pregnancy Center and local people needing help.

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” — John 14:6
