Who We Are
Our mission is to Share Christ. Make Disciples. As a church in the San Francisco Bay Area, we love the Bay and see this as a place of mission and a part of God’s kingdom. We desire to grow as disciples of Jesus Christ and work to bring the Gospel to our surrounding community. We don’t have all the answers, nor do we have it all together. Rather, we are imperfect people who are learning the way of Jesus.
