Purpose
We,
the congregation of La Crescent United Methodist Church exist to bring people into a relationship with Jesus Christ; to
strengthen the faith of believers through vital worship and faith forming care
groups, and to send out faithful servants of Christ
into the world.
Vision
We
will have a regional spiritual impact by bringing people to Christ through fervent
and impassioned evangelism, and by equipping believers for the work of the ministry
through biblical teaching and Spirit-led worship. Our goal is to produce strong,
joyful Christians who apply their faith to daily living and thereby
change the world in humility and love, through the power of the Holy Spirit.
