MISSION

Our mission is to lead people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus.

Swerve means "an abrupt change in direction". It's what we're believing to see in many lives in our community. An abrupt change in a life far from God to a growing relationship with him through Jesus.

VALUES

We love God because He first loved us. Our only reasonable response is to live for Him.
We love others as a response of the love we've been demonstrated through Christ. Because of Jesus we are a new family called to love and serve one another.
​
We serve our neighbors as we model after Christ who did not come to be served, but to serve others. ​We don't simply go to church - We are the church and exist for the world.
