Our Purpose comes from the Biblical text of Matthew 22:36-40; 28:19-20 which states the following:
36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.” Matthew 22:36-40 [ESV]
19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[a] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20 [ESV]
In summation:

REACH IN TO GROW We exist to grow as Christians while doing life together.
REACH OUT AND GO We exist to help all people know God and experience His gift of eternal life.
