About Us

HCN moves forward united as one

to fulfill God's plan for its existence. 

As we "abide in Him"

we will be able to reach out with compassion,

in Christ-like love;

bringing hope to the hopeless,

nurturing the hurting

as we "love one another",

as He commanded.

HCN Vision

 

We believe God has called HCN to be a church that has a passion for Christ and compassion for the world. To accomplish this task we envision a church.

•  where peoples lives are transformed by the power of God at work through life changing worship, relevant preaching, and dynamic relationships.

•  where people are welcomed, cared for and nurtured equally through multiple Christ honoring ministries designed for all ages and all races, whether they are a believer or a non-believer.

•  that is continually growing in spiritual depth as well as numerical breadth.

•  that will look outside itself, reaching to the world with missions support and resources, and reaching the community by birthing one new church by 2010.

•  that is willing to take risks to do great things for God. A church that is willing to reach out in inclusiveness to impact culture by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Believe?
1. We believe that the one God exists as three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

2. We believe God has mightily and graciously

acted in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ to save men from sin.

3. We believe men are sinful and fallen creatures by nature, and need to be forgiven, renewed and cleansed by God.

4. We believe the possibilities of grace include both, a complete pardon – being justified freely – and a thorough cleansing – which makes possible for all Christians to live a holy and victorious daily life.

5. We believe our salvation is by the merits and power of God’s grace alone, received by us through faith in Jesus Christ.

6. We believe Christ is coming again, that all men will be judged, that the redeemed will live in eternal blessedness, and that the person who rejects Christ will be forever damned.

7. We believe these doctrines are based solidly upon the teachings of Holy Scriptures, which is the written Word of God and the authority of Christian faith and life.

8. We believe that in thought, speech and action,

the Christian should be guided by the Spirit of God and not by the patterns of a Godless world.

9. We believe Christians should minister,

to the full extent of their ability, to the sick, the needy, the imprisoned, and the unsaved, everywhere.

10. We believe in love, acceptance and forgiveness for all people, of all races, and welcome anyone into our fellowship.
