Mission
Through relevant and biblically grounded teachings, empowering discipleship programs, and intentional membership, we strive to equip every member of our church family to discover, develop, and deploy their God-given gifts and talents for effective ministry.
We provide opportunities for intergenerational connections, recognizing the value of each generation and fostering relationships that promote mutual growth and mentorship. With a heart for our local community and beyond, we actively engage in outreach initiative, serving and partnering with those in need.
We seek to be a catalyst for positive change, addressing social issues, promoting justice, and demonstrating Christ's love through compassionate action.
Our desire to be a church that lives out the teachings of Jesus and embodies His love, grace, and truth in all that we do. IN all our efforts, we strive to glorify God, honor His name, and advancing His kingdom, recognizing that our collective impact as a diverse Christ-centered church grows far beyond the walls of our building.
Vision
New Salem seeks to become a Christ-centered multiethnic church equipping saints for ministry across cultures and generations. (Ephesians 4:1-16; Revelation 7:9-10)
Core Values
- Jesus is central.
- Help people find a place to belong.
- Service is a way of life.
- We are an ever-growing family of believers, determined to trust in God.
- While our lives are not easy, God’s Word gives us guidance and direction, and the presence of the Lord gives us strength to lean upon during our daily lives - whatever our lives may hold.
- We come from various social and economic backgrounds from all over the country, with wide-ranging ages, but we are united as a church family by our belief in God’s Word and a desire to do his will in our lives. It’s easier to keep focused on God when we are surrounded by others who share the same belief.
