Our Beliefs

We invite you to be part of our community-centered church community, where shared values guide us, and our commitment to caring for one another is at the heart of all we do

  • The Bible

    We believe the Bible is a source of wisdom, guidance, and inspiration, offering timeless insights for life. It serves as a foundation for our values, shaping how we live, grow, and support one another. Through reading and reflection, we seek to deepen our understanding, cultivate personal growth, and strengthen our sense of purpose and community.

  • Jesus and His Teachings

    We believe Jesus to be our central figure of faith, known for His profound teachings on love, forgiveness, humility, sacrifice and service. His life serves as an example of compassion, integrity, and selflessness, inspiring us to live with purpose and kindness. His message encourages us to maintain a relationship with God, care for others, seek personal growth, and cultivate a community rooted in love and understanding

  • Prayer

    We believe in the power of prayer and intentional reflection, both individually and as a community. Prayer is a time to pause, express gratitude, seek wisdom, and find strength in life’s challenges. It allows us to center our thoughts, nurture inner peace, and cultivate deeper connections with ourselves and others. Through prayer and reflection, we gain clarity, encouragement, and a renewed sense of purpose in how we love and support each other.

  • Our Church

    We believe that the church is more than just a building—it is a community united by shared values of kindness, respect, fairness. We strive to create an inclusive and supportive space where people come together to encourage, uplift, and care for one another. Committed to making a positive impact, we seek to live out our values through acts of compassion, service, and dedication to the well-being of our Mount Zion church family and the wider community.
