Vision Statement

We continue our growth as a Reformed, Confessional, Connectional, Presbyterian Congregation that proclaims God’s glory through traditional worship; biblically based education; a vibrant music program in a warm, welcoming, affirmative and intentionally inclusive Christian community. We will maintain our facility and staff to accomplish this vision. We will accomplish this vision as a “More Light”, “Matthew 25” and "Earth Care" congregation by following the tenets of; Building Congregational Vitality; Dismantling Structural Racism while Empowering Marginalized and Minoritized Populations; as well as working towards Eradicating Systemic Poverty.

Worship

Worship reflects our belief in Jesus Christ, who gives us faith, life, unity and mission to the World. Our worship is inclusive, diverse, reflective and respectful of a variety of cultures. It represents the Reformed tradition in adherence with PCUSA.

Education

We approach education as an implicit element for all ages, in everything we do as a faith community.

Faith Formation will occur within worship, fellowship, mission, small groups and other ways...

Music and Art

We are a people of God that gives voice to our worship through the spoken word, through congregational singing, and through the performing arts.

Building Congregational Vitality and Congregational Care

We are a church that carries on a mission of teaching and service to those who worship with us and to our community, and care of those who form the body of Christ. We will create opportunities to build relationships within the Church and community.

Dismantling Structural Racism while Empowering Marginalized and Minoritized Populations

We are a community that includes and respects all, in which all who enter the church space are welcomed and belong. We support groups and activities that dismantle structural racism and empower marginalized populations.

Eradicating (Alleviating) Systemic Poverty

We are a community that recognizes the existence of systemic poverty and will put our resources to reduce the economic exploitation of the poor. We will provide resources and support programs, services, and opportunities that provide basic needs such as food, shelter, physical and mental health.

Maintenance of Facility and Staff

We have a facility that actively engages the Lansing region through its welcoming and inviting nature and its safe and well-maintained condition that is optimized and maximized to serve our Christian mission.

The work of the church is done by many wonderful people in our church community

and in the community around us!
