Faith Presbyterian Church, ARP

1300 Mississippi Street
601-394-2170

Vision:

Our 1st challenge - "come as you are"
our 2nd challenge - trust that your journey toward God will not let you stay that way.

Values:

Mystery - We embrace the wonder and mystery of our Creator and seek to celebrate, enjoy and experience the goodness of God, that far surpasses our understanding.

Authenticity - We stumble every day in many ways - and so we encourage one another to readily admit mistakes, not to hide rough edges, or try to cover up our struggles.

Acceptance - We believe God loves each of us completely and unconditionally, and that growth happens best in safety and acceptance.

Connection - We trust God is passionately pursuing a personal connection with each of us.  We desire a personal connection with God and each other.

Missional -  We accept the challenge of Christ to serve in a world without becoming a product of it.

Virtues:

Love God - Loving God leads to our allowing God to know us.

Love people - We want to love others to be motivated, encouraged and speak truth in love to build others up. Like the apostle John, we will say "If someone says, 'I love God,' but hates a Christian brother or sister, that person is a liar, for if we don't love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we have not seen?"

Grow character - We seek to grow in love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control; this is what God produces in us when we yield ourselves to him.

Serve always -  Each of us has been given unique gifts and abilities to love and serve him by uniting together to love and serve one another.  Every person has a unique role to play in God's plans.
