IMPACTour community.
Our Mission
To make lives brighter through the love of Jesus, one home and one community at a time.
Vision
We are on mission to IGNITE a passion for Jesus. INFUSE with purpose. IMPACT community.
IGNITE - We believe the entire narrative of scripture points back to one name, Jesus. Our passion is to equip people to understand and articulate God's story, their story (personal testimony), and pray for opportunities to share this with family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, and strangers.
INFUSE- In order to radically transform our community, we believe we first must infuse people with purpose. This means we help people identify how God has uniquely wired them, pair them with a leader for apprenticeship, and release them into their passion.
​
IMPACT- We are not interested in leaving our community the same way we found it. Our desire is to see Jesus' hand print all over our community through: random acts of kindness, intentional serving opportunities, and partnering with schools and organizations. We truly believe we are better together!
Our Vision
To IGNITE a passion for Jesus, INFUSE with purpose, and
IMPACT our community.
Our Values
Our values at Illuminate Church propel the mission forward. Each of these values calls us to action and define the intentional culture that shape our Illuminate family.
Bold Prayer
There is something extraordinary that happens when we approach God’s throne with boldness. Big prayers; big God. At
illuminate we believe that God loves to make a way, where there seems
to be none.
Unity
Because we were made in the image of The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, it means we were designed for unity. God desires oneness with Him and each other. Through Jesus' death on the cross we are invited into that perfect relationship. So, we are unified around the name of Jesus.
Generational Faith
God's redemptive narrative is lived out from generation to generation. Our mature Christ followers believe they have wisdom to impart and a legacy to pass on to ensure the mission of God thrives through the years.
Relational Evangelism
We are passionate about sharing Jesus with people and we believe this happens best through the context of relationships. Our mission field is our relationships where we live, work and play.
Community
Our desire is to upend our community with crazy acts of love, meeting specific needs, and serving. All to point people to Jesus.
Heart-Led Generosity
We believe in the words of Matthew 6:21, "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." Our natural response is to give out of the overflow of our heart with exuberance because God loves a cheerful giver.
