OUR MISSION

Our mission at PAC is to make disciples of all nations, baptizing and teaching them until Jesus returns. Christ commissioned his church to proclaim the gospel, call people to repent and believe, and equip them to grow in Christ-likeness. 

OUR VISION

Our vision explains how we seek to fulfill our mission. We strive to do this together, with God's help, through ten dimensions of church life. (We gladly affirm the Ten Dimensions of Church Life put forward by the Treasuring Christ Together Church Planting Network.)

  • Enjoying and displaying the worth of Christ in God-centered, Christ-exalting, Spirit led, Bible-saturated corporate worship, including congregational singing and expository exultation. 

  • Commitment to depend on God's grace and mercy in personal, family, and corporate prayer, so that in all our blessings the Giver will get the glory. 

  • Corporate commitment to pursue a life together in sacrificial, faith-sustaining care for each other in loving relationships at every level of youth and age, joy and sorrow, comfort and crisis, health and brokenness. 

  • Personal efforts to grow and help each other grow in biblical truth, wisdom, faith, and love, which show Christ as our supreme treasure.

  • Humble submission to spiritual, biblically-qualified elders who lead by example, not dominion, and with joy, not under compulsion, to equip the saints for the work of the ministry, including aggressive efforts to multiply congregational leaders. 

  • The commitment of church and parents to train up succeeding generations of children and youth who live the vision of the church. 

  • Personal and corporate strategies of wartime living, courageous witness, and social action to show the supreme value of Christ to fallen people and fallen culture. 

  • Intentional efforts to display love across ethnic, cultural, generational, and socioeconomic lines and to be a church that models the fruit of that love. 

  • Personal and corporate expressions of compassion to relieve human suffering, near and far, by means of short-term intervention and long-term personal and structural change, in order to show the justice, mercy, and soul-satisfying beauty of Christ--forever. 

  • Corporate efforts in cross-cultural missions for the sake of the name of Christ among unreached peoples.
