Our Purpose
The goal of our church is to develop a desperate love for God that reflects in an uncommon love for others ( Matthew 37: 3-4; 1 John 4: 7-12), building a multigeneration, multi-cultural fellowship (1 Corinthians 12: 12-30). A ministry-centered church with sustained outreach that leads to equipping followers of Jesus with God's word (Colossians 1: 28-29; Matthew 28: 18-20).

Our Beliefs
The Evangelical Friends Church does not advance new teachings or doctrines. Instead, we seek to rediscover New Testament teachings and apply these age-old truths to our lives. As Friends, we believe:
- God is Our Father
- Jesus Christ is " the Word made flesh" for us. John 1:1,4
- The Holy Spirit is our Comforter, Strengthener, and Guide. John 16:7,13
- A person receives forgiveness through repentance for sins and belief in Jesus Christ as Savior. Acts 2:38
- The mission of the Church is to communicate the Good News of Salvation to people everywhere. Matthew 28: 18-20
- Each Christian has a spiritual gift that God has given him and we are to help one another develop and use these gifts. I Peter 4:10
- All are called to be ministers. The New Testament teaches the priesthood of all believers and the real Church is believers, not buildings. I Peter 2:5-9
- A Christian should seek the filling of the Holy Spirit in his life. Ephesians 5:18
- As believers we are to love one another as Christ loves us. I John 4:10
