Our Vision
At Shelbyville Community Church, our vision is to be a beacon of hope, love, and transformation in our community. Guided by the teachings of Jesus Christ, we strive to:
1. Foster Spiritual Growth:
We aim to create an environment where individuals can deepen their relationship with God through worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. Our goal is to nurture a vibrant and growing faith in every believer.
"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen." — 2 Peter 3:18 (NIV)
2. Build a Strong Community:
We envision a church where everyone feels welcome, valued, and connected. Through fellowship, support, and outreach, we seek to build strong, lasting relationships that reflect the love of Christ.
"Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching." — Hebrews 10:25 (NIV)
3. Serve with Compassion:
Inspired by the example of Jesus, we are committed to serving those in need, both within our congregation and in the wider community. Our mission is to be the hands and feet of Christ, offering help, hope, and healing.
"Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms." — 1 Peter 4:10 (NIV)
4. Empower Future Generations:
We are dedicated to equipping and empowering the next generation of believers. Through dynamic youth and children's programs, mentorship, and education, we aim to raise up leaders who will carry the torch of faith forward.
"Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." — Proverbs 22:6 (NIV)
5. Promote Global Outreach:
Our vision extends beyond our local community. We are passionate about supporting missionary work and global initiatives that spread the Gospel and bring aid to those in need around the world.
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." — Matthew 28:19 (NIV)
6. Cultivate Innovation:
We seek to embrace new methods and ideas to effectively communicate the timeless message of the Gospel. By leveraging technology and creative approaches, we aim to reach more people and make a greater impact.
"Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth." — Psalm 96:1 (NIV)
We are committed to fulfilling this vision by relying on God's guidance, fostering unity, and continuously striving to reflect His love and grace in all we do. Together, we embark on this journey of faith, seeking to transform lives and glorify God.
