WELCOME TO THE SUMMIT
CORE VALUES
-
The presence of the Lord is at the centre of everything we do. We’ve seen lives transformed, chains broken, and joy restored as people encounter Jesus. We long for His presence because we know that being with Him changes us. Through prayer meetings, worship, and gathering together, we make room to fellowship with Him and respond to His leading. You may notice that we take our time in worship. That’s intentional; we love being with Jesus, and we don’t want to rush past what He is doing.
“Let us go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting him.” Hebrews 10:22
-
We believe in the family of God and the importance of meaningful relationships. Our heart is for people to be known, loved, and connected. Not simply attending the same church, but sharing life and going after God together. We make room for friendships that strengthen our faith, encourage us through every season, and help us grow. Community is where we learn to love and serve one another as the family He has called us to be.
"Now the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one soul; neither did anyone say that any of the things he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common."
Acts 4:32 -
Devotion is the spark in our hearts that draws us toward God and keeps us attentive to His presence. Our relationship with Jesus reaches beyond a Sunday gathering into the way we live each day. Through prayer, His Word, worship, and obedience, we cultivate a life centred on Him. Our desire is to live devoted lives and help others grow in that same daily pursuit. Knowing Him more deeply and responding to His love wholeheartedly
"Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit..."
John 15:4-5
-
We believe our world needs the hope found in Jesus. That hope shapes what we preach, what we teach, and how we speak into the days we’re living in. Even when the world feels darker, we believe the light of Jesus will shine brighter. We look to the future with confidence in His goodness and faithfulness, carrying a message of hope that strengthens the church and reaches beyond our walls.
"Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful."
Hebrews 10:23
STATEMENT OF FAITH
-
There is only one true God who is the eternal King, Creator and Redeemer of all that is. He is perfectly holy, just, loving and truthful. He has revealed Himself to be eternally self-existent - one being in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
The Bible is to be the inspired and only infallible and authoritative Word of God.
Humankind was created in the image of God to know and enjoy Him yet we willfully rejected the Lordship and glory of God for which we were intended. Because of this, sickness, death and judgment entered the world and now creation experiences the effects and consequences of sin.
The Lord Jesus Christ, the one and only Son of God, was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin, Mary, and is God’s Anointed One, empowered by the Holy Spirit to inaugurate God’s Kingdom on earth. He was crucified for our sins, died, was buried, resurrected and ascended into heaven, and is now alive today, in the presence of God the Father and in His people. He is "true God" and "true man."
We are saved by God’s grace, through faith in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Anyone can be restored to fellowship with God through repenting, believing and receiving Jesus as their Saviour and Lord. The Holy Spirit convicts, regenerates, justifies, sanctifies and adopts us as we enter the Kingdom of God as His sons and daughters.
In the ongoing sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy life and minister supernaturally. The baptism of the Holy Spirit according to Acts 1:4-8 and Acts 2:4 is poured out on believers that they might have God’s power to be His witnesses.
The victorious redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides freedom from the power of the enemy – sin, lies, sickness and torment.
The Church consists of all who put their faith in Jesus Christ. He gave his church the ordinances of Baptism and Communion. The Church exists to carry on the ministry of Jesus Christ and further advance His kingdom by undoing the works of the enemy, preaching and living the good news of God’s love, discipling the nations, baptizing and teaching them to love and obey God.
In the ever-increasing government of God and in the Blessed Hope, which is the glorious visible return of the Lord Jesus Christ to rule and reign with His overcoming bride – the church.
Heaven and hell are real places. There will be a resurrection of the saved and the lost, the one to everlasting life and the other to everlasting death.
