MISSION, VISION, VALUES & BELIEFS
Mission
Our mission is helping people say YES to Jesus. We believe the decision to follow Jesus is a lifetime commitment of saying YES to whatever He is calling us to do. In the 1st century one of the most important things a disciple did was say YES; it wasn’t optional, when the master called or commanded you obeyed. We want Generation to be known as a group of people who say YES. When Jesus calls or commands, we respond and we want to help you say YES to Jesus!
Vision
Our vision is to be disciple-making followers of Jesus. Jesus commanded His followers to go and make disciples of all nations. That is the last command Jesus gave, and so we as a church are sold out to His command. If you call Generation home we want you to be a disciple-making follower of Jesus. A disciple is someone who is following Jesus, becoming like Jesus, and helping others do the same.
