Our Core Values
? Service before Self:► Jesus modelled this core value when He uttered, ?For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many?. We are modeled to serve and as followers of Jesus, we are motivated by God?s love to serve all people regardless of religion, race, ethnicity or gender.

? Love one Another: ►We believe that genuine love of God and caring relationships are keys to the life of every endeavour.
? Accountability:► We believe it is important for us to be open with and dependent upon each other for support and prayer and that we must hold each other accountable to grow in our service and stewardship.
? Partnering:► We believe we are a part of the worldwide body of Christ and support great and diverse works of God throughout the world by partnering with the Christian organizations and other agencies.
? Responsiveness:► We are responsive to the life threatening emergencies where our involvement is needed and fitting.
