Love Deep

To love deep is to have a love for all people that is reflective of who Christ is and His unconditional love and compassion for us.

We are God’s workmanship, created in Jesus for good works (Ephesians 2:10). As His masterpieces, we are made to reflect our Maker, God. And God is Love. And He teaches us that love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own…It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails (1 Cor. 13:4-8). Making us into His masterpieces, He plants in us the seeds to love deep as He did, and our only standard of love for each other and those we serve is His. 

Serve Wide

As God is the creator of our being, a reasonable service from us to Him is to offer our bodies a living sacrifice, holy, and acceptable to Him (Romans 12:1). And in our service, and in whatever we do or say, we do in the name of God (Colossians 3:17), striving to give thanks for the service’s hills, valleys, peaceful seas, and raging storms. 

To serve wide is to offer ourselves with thanksgiving to be God’s living sacrifices as His hands and feet. 

Reach Far

As Christ walked on this earth, he touched the leper and healed the deaf and lame. His touch reached beyond the person’s physical body and into the deepest parts of their soul. His touch loved. His touch healed. His touch revived. In being Christ-like, we hope to reach far to those hurting to spread this hope and healing. To reach is to strive to touch, connect, sympathize, and empathize - all requiring labor. In such labor, we persevere in order to not grow weary, for in due season, we shall reap if we do not lose heart (Galatians 6:9)

To reach far is to reach to the deepest parts of people’s hurts, not giving up hope but persevering with integrity

Our Faith Statement

We believe in one God, God the Father, who loves and accepts all as they come to Him.

We believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only-Begotten Son of God, who gave up Himself for the love of the world. 

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Life-Giver, Who helps in our weaknesses and makes intercessions for us with groanings that cannot be uttered. 

Mission for Christ’s foundations are rooted in the apostolic beliefs of the Coptic Orthodox Church
